            About
            Better bridges beginning to end. OpenBridge Designer features advanced interoperability, allowing access to Bentley’s civil application data, as well as a seamless connection to Bentley’s bridge design and analysis applications. Project team members can take the conceptual model from OpenBridge Modeler into the design stage and move through the workflow by performing analysis and design including evaluation of construction work stages using Bentley’s LEAP applications and RM Bridge, OpenRoads Designer, ProStructures, ProjectWise, and other applications. With all these capabilities in one application, you’ll accelerate performance, produce intelligent models through intuitive capabilities for 3D parametric bridge modeling, and improve project deliverables with intelligent data management and automated drawing production that revolutionizes the bridge delivery process. OpenBridge Modeler is a 3D parametric modeling software for bridges.
