WHAT IS OPENROADS?
From the Bentley Website:
“Shared technology embedded in InRoads, GEOPAK,
MXROAD, and PowerCivil.”
“It expands these products to include information-
rich 3D modeling integrated with CAD, mapping, GIS,
and business tools like PDFs, i-models, and
hypermodels.”

OPENROADS CIVIL CELLS
What is a Civil Cell?o A Civil Cell is a parametric object that allows
a user to preconfigure commonly used 2D
and 3D geometric layouts while maintaining
all design, constraint and relational
intelligence. After placement the user can
change parametric properties and modify the
cell based on project criteria.

o Cross Section
o 3D Model
ODOTcadd Standards for OpenRoads
104 |
FEATURES AND

ODOTcadd Standards for OpenRoads
106 |
FEATURES AND
ELEMENT TEMPLATES
o Feature Definitions can refer to
a “Native” standard (D&C
Manager, Survey Manager) or a
MicroStation Element Template
ODOTcadd Standards for OpenRoads
107 |
FEATURES AND
ELEMENT TEMPLATES
o Feature Definitions are defined
in DGN Librarieso When the feature is used, it is copied into
the design file (just like a level, line
style, font, etc..)
o If the Feature uses an Element Template,
the ET is also copied to the active file
ODOTcadd Standards for OpenRoads
108 |
FEATURES AND
ELEMENT TEMPLATES
o The local Feature definition is
always used firsto If the DGNLIB definition of the Feature or
the Element Template is changed, the
local definition is used unless the feature
and element template are manually
deleted and the element redrawn
o Note: Element Templates can be updated
from the library, features cannot
ODOTcadd Standards for OpenRoads
109 |
FEATURES AND
ELEMENT TEMPLATES
o Feature Definitions are
created, modified, and
reviewed using the Civil

o Process in a 3D design file
o The choice of whether to use a
grid or ground Geographic
Coordinate System (GCS) is
made at this stage
ODOTcadd Standards for OpenRoads
112 |
SURVEY PROCESSING
o The purpose of a GCS is to establish the location of the data on
the Earth’s surface
o Once set, it should not be changed
o The GPK file is NOT Georeferenced
o Changing the GCS in the DGN file does not change the GPK file
o But what about Auto Persist?
ODOTcadd Standards for OpenRoads
113 |
SURVEY PROCESSING
o Field Codes are defined as

SELECTSERIES 4 UPDATE 1
o Bentley RailTrack SELECTseries 4 (OpenRail)
o Bring Rail products onto same platform as Road.
o SUDA
o Extends on SUE to Provide Storm/Sanitary Analysis
capability
o Draws on Haestad analysis and integrates with StormCAD
(includes 100 inlet with OpenRoads) / Civil Storm /
SewerCAD / SewerGems depending on licences
o Bentley Descartes SELECTseries 5 (08.11.09.601).
o Bentley Map SELECTseries 4 (08.11.09.615).
175 |
HORIZONTAL GEOMETRY ENHANCEMENTS
o Chord Definition based arcs are supported.
176 |
HORIZONTAL GEOMETRY ENHANCEMENTS
o Best fit regression on B-spline elements provides improved
performance and the creation of spiral based alignments.
o Support the import of following Transition Spirals:
o Bloss
o Biquadratic
o Cosine
o Sinusoid
o Half-Bloss
o Half-Biquadratic
o Half-Cosine
o Half-Sinusoids
177 |
HORIZONTAL GEOMETRY ENHANCEMENTS
o Improved tool tips from geometry to show what the geometry
belongs to (or where it originated from).
178 |
TERRAIN MODEL ENHANCEMENTS
o A new explicitly defined <Boundary> option has been added to the
terrain model edge conditions.
179 |
TERRAIN MODEL ENHANCEMENTS
o Complex terrain models are now allowed when the base terrain
models boundaries do not overlap.
180 |
TERRAIN MODEL ENHANCEMENTS
o Create Terrain Model Boundary tool has been added.
o Extract Graphic - Will allow the creation of a graphical
boundary element that reflects the current limits of the
triangulation of the given terrain model.
o Add Boundary – Adds a boundary internally (no graphic) to the
terrain using the current limits of triangulation.
o Add Ruled Boundary – Does both of the above … creates a
graphical boundary element and then rules that graphical
element to the boundary of the terrain.
181 |
MODELING ENHANCEMENTS
o Template library organizer now allows copy of edited linear
templates in a DGN back to the library (previously only worked with corridor
templates).
o Linear Template are now able to be renamed in Quick Properties.
o Linear Templates have been extended to always include external
control points for improved modelling accuracy that was previously
only available using full corridor modeling.
182 |
MODELING ENHANCEMENTS
o Template drop description has been added to the corridor objects
dialog.
o Design Stage artifacts, Top Mesh and Template Geometry, persists
rules regardless if they are on/off in the Design Stage settings. This
is true for both corridors and linear templates.
This results in multiple benefits, such as:
o Target Aliasing seeks top mesh of Corridors and Linear
Templates instead of nearest component, resulting in faster
processing.
o You can now drape 2D elements directly on the corridor
without having to create a terrain.
183 |
MODELING ENHANCEMENTS
o When an End Condition seeks something other than a surface (e.g.
linear elements via Horizontal, Vertical, or Both), the elements
must be added as a Corridor Reference in order to populate the
Target Alias dialog.
o This results in much faster processing since the software
doesn’t have to search all the elements in the file. It only
searches for and lists the elements that are listed as Corridor
References.
o Optimized performance when the base alignment contains B-
splines, or when targeting B-splines elements as corridor point
controls and feature definition constraints.
o B-Splines are normally created when you copy parallel
geometry that contains spirals.
184 |
I-MODEL AND ICM ENHANCEMENTS
o i-model presentation of the
civil model has been improved
so Items Browser closely
reflects the civil model
represented by Project
Explorer when a civil
application is present.
This makes for easier navigation
and reporting in the i-model.
oExporting the .icm.dgn now
includes the graphical
representation of the civil data
being exported.
185 |
I-MODEL AND ICM ENHANCEMENTS
o WYSIWYG Publisho Publish Displayed Attachments Only
o Excellent way to make the files
smaller
186 |
INTEROPERABILITY ENHANCEMENTS
o When using the File > Publish i-model option to publish an i-model, you can
now include the civil data (an example of this would be publishing an i-
model for the OpenRoads mobile application).
In order to do this, you will need to set the following CFG variable:
CIVIL_iMODEL_INCLUDE_ICM=1 *** Publish Design Models only
CIVIL_iMODEL_INCLUDE_ICM=2 *** Publish Terrain Models only
CIVIL_iMODEL_INCLUDE_ICM=3 *** Publish both design and terrain
models
If variable is not set then no civil data will be saved to i-model.
187 |
PROJECT EXPLORER
o Project Explorer has the ability to zoom to an element
or object.

LEGACY PRODUCT ENHANCEMENTS
GEOPAK - Optimization loading file list of GPK files from ProjectWise.
InRoads - Vertical Annotation Enhancement.
• Ability to only Annotate Curve-less VPIs with a leader, station, and
elevation
• Added the ability to add station and elevation to Curve Data.
MX - export to native provides feedback in the Message Center for the
number of elements persisted and a list of elements that did not.
MX - Added a key-in that clears MX data persisted information from the
DGN file. This allows for clean export to MX.
