To generate a beam report
The beam report contains a length report and an elevation report. In this release, the length report is only generated for concrete girders.
The beam length report includes, for every beam in the bridge, the true length (measured along the beam length in 3D), the projected length (2D plan length), and also includes the beam grade(slope) as a percent, direction and rotation about the vertical axis of the beam if any.
