The new CS tool looks very limited in scope. It would be good to extend its viability by supporting meshes. Flooring is rarely level or flat when you look across a project.
It would be good to have an option that is based on Mstn's Thicken tool that works with the faceted planes that the user will encounter when dealing with wet rooms like WCs, kitchens etc, flat roofs, building entrance approaches and pavements.
Mstn / OBD's Slope Thematic Display Style is still pretty unique in the AEC market. Huge advantage when designing complex external paving and pavements where compliance with slope restrictions are very difficult.
Once a design is complete, the resulting arrangment is typically a heavily facetted collection of planes of crickets, drop kerbs etc that will then need to amended in 3d to generate the subsurface layers / buildup. It would be good to use CS for that rather than going the Thicken and tag with BIM attributes route.
| How frequently will feature be used? | A few times a day |
| How much time will you save? | Lots especially on the type of infrastructure / transport jobs OBD is typically used on. |
