Reports and Drawings

Table 1. Bridge Reporting group
Tool name Description


Quantities Report 		Opens the report Preview window with the quantities report loaded for editing and output creation.


Input Report 		Opens the Preview window with parameters used to generate a report listing all the input for the model.


XYZ 		Used to generate a report of the Cartesian coordinates of each front and back template point for all segments in a segmental bridge.


Deck 		Opens the Deck Elevation Report dialog, which is used to generate a report of deck elevations parametrically.


Beam 		Generates elevations along tenth points of each of the beams in a bridge unit.


Bearing Seat 		Used to generate a report of bearing seat elevations for the bridges and bridge units in the model.


Camber 		Opens the Beam Camber and Deflections dialog, which is used to specify beam camber and deflection values for creating girder top and screed elevation reports.


Pier


Dynamic View By Station 		Used to generate a dynamic cross section (cut) view of the model at a given station.
Table 2. Drawings group
Tool name Description


Settings 		Opens then Drawings: Dynamic View Settings dialog, which is used to


Create Drawings 		Used to select a pier or abutment for which you want to generate automated drawings.


Create 		Used to select a station along an alignment to generate automated superstructure section cut drawings.


Place Named Boundary 		Used to place one or more named boundaries and optionally create saved view(s) and automate dynamic views.
Named Boundaries The named boundaries manages named boundaries and named boundary groups.
Adjust Profile Named Boundaries Used to adjust profile named boundaries after initial layout.

Table 3. Measure group
Tool name Description


Measure Distance 		Used to measure distance. The coordinates are always reported from the active model and not from a reference file attachment.


Measure Radius 		Used to measure:
  • The radius of a circle or circular arc.
  • The radius of a cone or cylinder.
  • The primary and secondary axes of an ellipse or elliptical arc.
  • The radius of a circular segment or axes of an elliptical segment of a complex chain or complex shape.


Measure Angle 		Used to measure the angle between two lines or segments of a line string, shape, or multi-line. If the selected lines do not intersect, an intersection point is computed to serve as the vertex of the measured angle.


Measure Length 		Used to measure the length of an element(s) and analyze mass properties. For a closed element or a surface, the length of the perimeter or wireframe geometry is measured.


Measure Area 		Used to measure area and perimeter.


Measure Volume 		Used to measure the volume enclosed by an element or a set of elements and to analyze mass properties. The element(s) must completely enclose a volume; if a volume is not enclosed, a message appears in the status bar.
