OpenRoads Technology LIVE eSeminars
See for yourself how OpenRoads technology expands what’s possible in road design, construction, and operations with immersive 3D modeling, design intent, repeatable geometric layouts, and construction-driven engineering capabilities. Discover why the majority of U.S. departments of transportation and Canadian ministries, the U.S. Federal Highway Authority, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and other municipal governments and transportation agencies around the world depend on Bentley civil software. Join us in our complimentary LIVE eSeminar series!

OpenRoads Technology: Dynamic Cross Sections
Thursday, June 20, 2013, at 1:00 p.m. EDT
Reduce production time with dynamic updates reflected throughout the design and modeling process. View updates on the fly as the design is modified with dynamic cross sections. Grab a handle on a particular point along the corridor and watch as updates are instantly reflected in the design. Readily view the ground changing to reflect the design changes, enabling immersive modeling capabilities.

OpenRoads Technology: Civil Cells
Thursday, July 25, 2013, at 1:00 p.m. EDT
Wizards become quickly outdated with the advent of civil cells. A civil cell is a parametric object that allows you to preconfigure commonly used 2D and 3D geometric layouts while maintaining all design, constraint, and relational intelligence. Civil cells are stored in DGNLib files for re-use across multiple applications. You can create a 3D intersection that you may use over and over in your design. Store it as a civil cell and then you can readily access it anytime you need to design an intersection. Any differences such as radius return values or other geometric properties of the new intersection can be easily modified to fit the new design parameters. If you can design it – a civil cell can handle it. There is no limit to the simplicity or complexity of the civil cell.

OpenRoads Technology: Design-Time Visualization
Thursday, August 22, 2013, at 1:00 p.m. EDT
View your design in real time with our powerful, dynamic 3D modeler that results in design-time rendering as a reality, not a future process. With a click of a mouse, drive the roadway or rail line or walk about your site to ensure the design is exactly as you intend. Save valuable time, eliminate building errors, and reduce project costs by truly experiencing the design. Unnecessary translations to other software are eliminated, reducing the potential for errors and saving time and additional software costs. In addition, there is no need for additional staff or visualization software in order to create realistic 3D visualizations.
