Roads and Bridges

[sbrown]

First I've been looking at the object styles since release 1 and there is one for Roads that as far as I can tell there is no way to put and object on the roads object style. Hopefully oneday. anyway that was just a side note. I need to create a bridge over a road to connect two buildings, it needs to be bowed and have a railing on top. can anyone think of a way to make a railing that follows a curve in elevation. I've tried attaching it to an inplace floor family that is curved but it won't do it.

Break it up into short sectons?

Can't think of a better solution.

Hmmmm...only thing I come up with is an in-place sweep for the rail pieces that follow the curve (like the handrail) and then inplace families for the vertical components/ballusters.

I'm going to try it with a ruled curtain wall and see how that goes.
