OpenBridge Modeler - Parametric Bridge Modeling Software
From Bridge Design
OpenBridge Modeler creates intelligent 3D bridge models within the context of an overall transportation project by using iterative computational design and lifelike visualizations. It calibrates design to terrain, roadways, access ramps, and related infrastructure by directly leveraging Bentley’s civil design applications. It's easy to control project costs by minimizing construction delays with traffic and construction simulations as well as by using clash detection to reduce interference problems, before construction begins.

What is OpenBridge Modeler?
OpenBridge Modeler provides 3D parametric modeling capabilities and incorporates multi-discipline data into a single model to efficiently design, and produce project deliverables in a dynamic and interactive environment.
OpenBridge Modeler unifies roadway engineers, bridge engineers, and contractors from the earliest stages of a bridge project through design revisions and beyond. Referencing existing conditions improves accuracy, eliminates redundant data entry, and identifies constructability issues and conflicts early on.
- Create intelligent models
Produce intelligent, parametric models rich in engineering content for various bridge components, including concrete compressive strength, structural steel grade, standard beam designations, and more. OpenBridge Modeler reuses data from various stakeholders to ensure relevant, up-to-date geometry all within one model.
- Manage project changes
If reference data changes, the parametric and rule-based bridge model responds automatically, so managing project changes is no longer cumbersome.
- Mitigate risk with conflict analysis
Perform conflict analysis of bridge structures with existing infrastructure to eliminate errors prior to construction to save time and reduce costly rework.
- Perform construction sequence investigation
Review phases in stage-wise construction to compare results, detect relevant states, and produce result envelopes for evaluation to solve problems related to creep, shrinkage, and other issues before construction. Plan with real-time traffic simulation, and virtually drive through the 3D corridor model to inspect it for any design deficiencies or physical conflicts. Integrate with Bentley Navigator for design review, construction simulation, and automated clash detection. Interoperate with RM Bridge to evaluate the feasibility of construction sequencing.
- Produce required deliverables
Deliver plans, 3D design data, earthwork, reports, visualizations, BIM deliverables, and construction data to meet project requirements. Generate a variety of reports such as deck elevations, beam-seat elevations, material quantities, cost estimates, and Input Echo report to facilitate the evaluation of multiple bridge alternatives, construction sequences, costs, and more. Easily publish project information with a variety of report options.
- Enhance visualization
Help project team members, stakeholders, and clients better understand the bridge project and design environment with 3D bridge models. Quickly verify bridge geometry and provide plan, elevation, and cross-section views. Measure vertical and horizontal clearances, view time-lapse construction animation, and perform clash detection.
