This section defines insertion points that position U-girders along each support line.
Step 1: Navigate to Insertion Point
Navigate to Bridge Geometry > Insertion Point in the tree view.
Step 2: Create First Insertion Point
Click the three-dots icon on the first cell of Location and select Select.
From the dropdown menu, choose SL1 (support line for End Bent location).
Step 3: Plan Insertion Points
For each support line, create one insertion point beneath each Concrete U Girder.
Since there are two U-girders in this project, there will be two insertion points on each support line.
Step 4: Set Transverse Offsets
Enter Transverse Offset values of -12 ft and +12 ft to position the insertion points on each support line.
Step 5: Create Remaining Insertion Points
Repeat the process to create insertion points for all support lines with their respective transverse offset values.
Quick Tip: Transverse Offset Direction
Offset values use PGL (Profile Grade Line) as the reference point.
Quick Tip: Skew Angle and Offset Calculation
After completing these steps, the insertion point layout should appear as shown below.
