Modify the girder component type and offsets for an individual girder. Once you have made modifications, you can easily apply those changes to all girders, all girder groups, only interior girders, or only exterior girders, for the selected bridge.
To apply modifications to other girders and reset girder changes
Once you have modified settings for a girder, you can choose to apply those settings to all girders in that girder group, or all girders in the selected bridge. If you are working with an interior girder type, you can choose to apply your changes to all interior girders as well. Use the same procedure to apply modifications to an exterior girder to other girders.

- Right-click on the girder and hover over Apply To...
- Click All Girders, All Girders in Group, or all Interior/Exterior Girders. Your modifications to the selected girder will be applied to other girders in the current bridge depending on the choice you make here.
