# Plan and Elevation CADD \[SIG]

## General

**Bridge:** Since OpenBrIM supports the modeling of multiple bridges, this parameter should specify the bridge for which the Plan and Elevation drawing will be generated.

**Start/End PGL #ft from Before/After Bridge \[Use Alignment Start and End Station]:** Users can either generate CADD according to the defined PGL boundaries (by setting to -1) or input a specific value to extend the CADD to a certain distance from the bridge start and end points.

**Station Mark Every #nth Station:** Specifies the interval at which station marks are placed on the drawing. This controls the spacing of station labels.

**Number of Pieces btw. Station Marks:** Defines the number of segments to divide the space between consecutive station marks, for finer level of detail representation.

**Curve Refinement:** Controls the smoothness of curved sections in the drawing by specifying the refinement level. Higher values produce smoother curves.
