What is OpenBridge Software?

OpenBridge is BIM software for bridge engineers ready to support LOD requirements for all types of bridge projects – from conceptual model to design and construction. OpenBridge is the only complete bridge solution.

OpenBridge Modeler

Screen_OpenBridge_EfficientIs intelligent 3D bridge modeling software. Now, in one program, you can create a true 3D model of a bridge with enhanced visualization not possible with generic 2D CAD programs.

  • 3D modeling removes tedious, repeatable drafting work as it automates workflows and updates changes throughout the model – saving you time and money.
  • OpenBridge Modeler also includes intelligent bridge objects. Gone is the need to custom code specific bridge objects, simply select what you need from the library.
  • Integrate with other civil design applications, and unify roadway engineers, bridge engineers, and contractors from the earliest stages of a bridge project through design revisions and beyond.

The result: an innovative, collaborative, and efficient project.

OpenBridge Designer

Screen_OpenBridge_VisualizeCombines modeling, analysis, and design into one dynamic, iterative, and parametrically enabled environment. OpenBridge Designer is the industry leading solution for serious bridge engineers, with the fully integrated capabilities of Bentley’s OpenBridge Modeler, LEAP Bridge Concrete, LEAP Bridge Steel, and RM Bridge.

  • Removing the need to work with a host of independent applications, reduces the time required for data translations, the inevitable lack of interoperability, and the risk of error.
  • Create a true BIM model (physical and analytical models) at the beginning of a bridge project and improve design workflows, project efficiencies, design time, and risk analysis. For any bridge design project, steel or concrete.

OpenBridge Designer is the only solution you need.

The Software You Need For The Way You Work

Modeler

Bridge CAD Modeler

Bridges have never been more sophisticated and bridge design has never been simpler, faster, or more intelligent than with OpenBridge.

  • Reduce design time with parametric modeling and increase profitability
  • Easily create multiple scenarios and design options
  • Collaborate with ease across disciplines
  • Eliminate manual work and have more time for designing
  • Lower project costs with early conflict detection

With OpenBridge, you can evaluate multiple bridge options, implement changes with ease, and at last have an interoperable physical and analytical model for steel and concrete bridges.

  • Deliver better alternatives for any challenge
  • Reduce engineering time and increase profitability
  • Produce high quality work with the latest model and geometry
  • Eliminate building errors through conflict analysis
  • Create a single source of truth for a fully collaborative environment
Project Manager

Project Manager

OpenBridge fully automates the modeling and analytical process for steel and concrete bridges giving you the control you need for a collaborative, efficient, and successful project from start to finish.

  • Comply with DOT standards using the standard software
  • Deliver concepts faster
  • Establish a truly collaborative environment across disciplines
  • Detect and resolve clashes before construction begins
  • Manage changes quickly with intelligent, parametric models

OpenBridge Product Demo

Explore how OpenBridge, quickly and intuitively, enables engineers, CAD modelers, and project managers to create an interoperable physical and analytical model for steel and concrete bridges that can be utilized throughout the bridge lifecycle. Our brief product demonstration will show you how powerful, intelligent, and easy it really is.

Typical Bridge Project Benefits

OB_Inforgraphic-2

Always a positive return on your investment of software, hardware, and personnel training.

Design and construction schedules are optimized with new and more efficient workflows.

Quality improves as multiple alternatives could be analyzed and there is more time to optimize the final solution.

Costs are reduced as processes get shortened and unnecessary rework is eliminated.

Stories From Customers Like You

Latham’s Road Bridge, two-span continuous concrete bridge with footpath

The Melbourne, Australia project merges the usage of the OpenRoads Designer and OpenBridge Modeler applications. The Civil design team is providing the bridge design team with live civil data artifacts that are used to develop the bridge model.

“The OpenBridge modeler solution is the perfect fit for the project. The product provides a unique modeling toolset that aligned with the design team’s workflow and project requirements. It allowed the team to natively leverage the civil design team's evolving dataset, seamlessly, and return the bridge models to the civil team. No data conversions required! The parametric components utilized by OpenBridge Modeler delivered an outstanding BIM model that has been attributed to match client downstream asset management requirements.”

East 138th St. high-traffic interchange bridge replacement in an urban environment

As a replacement of a high-traffic bridge in New York City, the busiest of urban environments, construction sequence became a major part of the story that the models would have to tell. OpenBridge Modeler did the job. With the sophisticated sequencing, overwhelming number of underground utilities, and enormous group of stakeholders, this project also set a new standard as one of the most sophisticated projects to utilize a digital twin as the primary contract document.

“The close collaboration with our teammates at Bentley has allowed NYSDOT to become one the most foremost technology driven agencies in the United States.”
