Cross-Project Data [STG]

For objects from a Global/Master model to be transferred to a Child/Local model, Cross-Project Data objects can be utilized.

The use of such objects may be beneficial when:

• Several engineers are working on different elements of the same bridge. Each engineer can work on a separate element, making the necessary improvements without affecting the main project. After finalizing a design, the master project can be updated accordingly.

• Global models might require a few adjustments. By sharing multiple bridge elements and objects (code checks, etc.) from the Global Model, Local Models can be created and used efficiently .

For further explanation on how to share bridge elements and objects—such as an object that exists in one project (e.g., for code checks) with another project—while keeping the main project intact and iterating on related objects to enhance the design, refer to the following pages.
