Course Overview

OpenBridge Designer - Integrated modeling, analysis, and design for bridges by Bentley is a comprehensive training program designed for civil engineers, bridge designers, and BIM modelers seeking mastery in modern bridge engineering workflows. This course prepares learners for the Bentley Accredited Bridge Modeler: Basic Bridge Modeling with OpenBridge Modeler certification, validating foundational skills in 3D bridge modeling. With transportation agencies like TxDOT mandating digital delivery using OpenBridge, demand for certified professionals has surged—over 40% of major U.S. infrastructure firms now use OpenBridge Designer in their bridge design pipelines. The course equips participants with the ability to create intelligent, parametric 3D bridge models that integrate seamlessly with roadway geometry from OpenRoads Designer.

The curriculum covers core tools within the OpenBridge Designer ecosystem, including OpenBridge Modeler, LEAP Bridge Concrete, LEAP Bridge Steel, RM Bridge, ProStructures, and LumenRT. Through hands-on labs conducted in the native MicroStation-based environment, students build complete 3D models of steel and precast concrete I-girder bridges, incorporating superstructure and substructure components. A key project involves referencing live OpenRoads alignment data to generate a dynamically linked bridge model, then producing 2D plan sheets, material quantity reports, and construction simulations directly from the model. Learners also perform analytical workflows such as finite element analysis (FEA), load rating, and clash detection, simulating real-world coordination between design teams and contractors.

This course prepares candidates for the industry-recognized Bentley Accredited Bridge Modeler credential, which enhances professional credibility and aligns with growing employer demand for digital delivery expertise. Certified professionals report career advancement opportunities and salary premiums, with mid-level bridge engineers using BIM tools earning up to $125,000 annually in the U.S. Koenig Solutions supports this journey with Guaranteed-to-Run classes, official Bentley courseware, and access to expert instructors, ensuring deep mastery of OpenBridge Designer. Graduates are positioned to lead BIM-enabled bridge projects, drive efficiency in design workflows, and contribute to the creation of digital twins for sustainable infrastructure.
