I have a corridor with multiple assemblies along a 4 mile stretch of road. In certain locations the corridor is not not modeling the sidewalk. I checked all the targets and everything is good.

I have a corridor with multiple baselines and assemblies (not offset assemblies, but different baselines and assemblies).
I am trying to link them together with the LinkToMarkedPoint2 subassembly. From what I have read, this should be possible with this command, but I am getting no links. Am I wrong about the capabilities of this subassembly?
I created a base drawing for sections that references an alignment. I xrefed in the drawing where my corridor was created. When I create the section views, the corridor shows up perfectly.
I then created a blank sheet and xrefed in my section view base drawing.In this sheet drawing, only parts of the corridors are visible.I have a C&G on one assembly and a shoulder on another assembly that aren't visible. (see pics)The first pic is my section base drawing.
Is there a way to show a corridor assembly in a crossing profile in c3d 2012? I have a underground duct bank that I have modeled using a simple corridor. Now I want to have the duct bank assembly show up in another profile that crosses the ductbank corridror. I can't really create a surface fom the corridor since the duct bank a closed polygon. BTW, The subassembly for the duct bank was created from a polygon, if that is any useful info.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am creating a corridor with custom assemblies on two alignments. the alignments are not parallel and graded independently.
Between the two assemblies I would like to fill from one assembly to the other with a dynamic link. I can't do this as a target to featureline etc as it is within the same corridor. We have created the link with a target but this was done by creating a non-dynamic featureline from the corridor and using that as the target. This is obviously not great as far as keeping the corridor dnamic is concerned.
So I would like to customise a subassembly to allow it to target a marked point on an adjacent assembly.how the SAC tools (Get marked poinit or set marked point etc.) can be used to do this. The help file is less than useful. I am still on 2012 and dont have access to the 2014 SAC yet but will do shortly.
I have a super-e road assembly as shown that is running into the intersection of a future road stub. I can not figure out how to get the sidewalk to grade out in the intersection transition I have created for the curb return. Any way to get through this situation?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am attempting to create section views from a corridor. I have about 80 sections total that I would really like to stack 3 high...then just across the page. Any step by step that make this process easy to understand?
Right now I get 10 high then across the page (using 'draft' option). I've tried to make a dwt at a 10 scale, (setting the viewport at 10 scale and viewport as a 'section' in the properties), but when I use that, the sections start overlapping (this is using the 'production' option).
I'm trying to use assemblies when creating a corridor. The Tool Pallette is emply but I can drag the assembiles in from the Catalog. I've also created an assembly using the ASC. Neither work when I try to use them. The error message is attached.
I'm using a network installation and I do not have the option of changing it to a DVD installation.
I have created a surface from a corridor. I set the boundary of the surface to the daylight of the corridor. In some areas of the corridor the surface does not triangulate see attached.
View 2 Replies View RelatedCopy a corridor successfully? I'd like to try this just a little worried about the explosion of evil this may cause to my Civil 3D session.
Even all the properties of the corridor setup from one to another would be useful. I'm building one corridor and an 2nd one that matches everything except I need to replace my Assembly with one meant for stripping.
My corridor surface is not matching my corridor top links. see attachments. this is affecting my volumes!
The section-plan(surface red).png is showing the section editor and the plan view. the red highlighted line in section is the corridor surface and as you can see in plan view the surface is incorrect and wiggly.
The pdf is all my sections with the red linework being the corridor surface.

I have a spring that is used in multiple assemblies and in each assembly the compressed length is different. Plus the amount of compression is different.
What is the best way to model the spring so if I change the WD or OD, etc. all assemblies would update?
I tried adaptive, but that seemed to limit the relationship to a one-to-one not a one-to-many.
If I used iPart or the spring was derived from a table, where the OD & WD were constant, would the assembly models change when I changed these values?
So I have an assembly made up of several smaller assemblies and have constrained them in the main assembly but when I run the analysis, the interaction does not seem to exist.
An image has been displayed below, the pin should line up with the holes.
I have a issue merging multiple parts into one assembly. When i do the constrains the parts are able to move but the pieces break part. I need to be able to move the whole assembly with all parts together without them breaking apart.
View 6 Replies View RelatedIn my company there are a lot of standard parts with variations. An object can have for example a left and a right variation, or can have three a different heights. I've created and iAssembly with the different variations, in which every member has a different part number. I'd like to make an overview drawing containing all the variations of that object, so the user can easily see the options and can choose the one he wants. On the sheet I'd like to have views of all the different members of the iAssembly, plus a table of all the members with their part number. It was no problem to create the views and the table. But I have two other questions.
1. I want to show the name of the Assembly with the view. So I'd to have in the view a text with the description of the Assembly-member, which is linked with the Assembly. I've tried to use a balloon to tag the assembly, but this only balloons the parts of the assembly. (How) can I do this for the whole of the assembly?
2.When I make an overview of all the columns we use, I'd like to align all the views at the bottom of the view, so you can see that all the columns have different heights, and how they differ in relation to each other. When I align the views with each other, the alignment is done in the middle of the object, not at the bottom. Is there a way to choose what lines of the view must align with each other? Or a way to align the views to a line (for example in a sketch)?
Any way to create a parametric Parts List containing subassemblies, where the subs are listed, by name/item number, in colum format, and qty's are tabulated accross rows. (see attached as an example). If the same part number occurs in multiple subs, the part is only listed once, but the quantity for each sub would be noted. The pdf attached had to be done manually, which somewhat defeats the purpose of having software like Inventor.

I have tried to get them to go to 3d modeling and xref in the parts but apparently that is not acceptable , since there is no master assembly, but instead folders of dwgs is there an easier way of managing this?
iLogic code question concerning how Place iLogic Component and retain the ability to push parameters from the subassemblies to the parts after being renamed.
I have ASSEMBLY.iam containing:
SUBASSEMBLY-01:1.iam
SUBASSEMBLY-02:1.iam
and sometimes SUBASSEMBLY-02:2.iam
each SUBASSEMBLY.iam contains PART1.ipt and PART2.ipt which have variable LENGTH and WIDTH. LENGTH and WIDTH are entered manually at the SUBASSEMBLY.iam and are infinitely variable.
To transfer the parameters I'm using iLogic code in the SUBASSEMBLY:
Parameter("PART1.ipt", "LENGTH")=LENGTHParameter("PART1.ipt", "WIDTH")=WIDTHParameter("PART2.ipt", "LENGTH")=LENGTHParameter("PART2.ipt", "WIDTH")=WIDTH
Issue 1: When I place the SUBASSEMBLY as an iLogic Component, the parts are renamed to PART1-01.ipt which renders my Parameter transfer useless. What am I missing on writing this code so it can find the new part name?
Issue 2: I like the automatic renaming that happens with Place iLogic Component. Is there a better way to handle this automatically through Place Component -> Save & Replace?

I have 2 assemblies and drawings of those assemblies. in both the same part is among the parts.
I want to change the name of the part that is in both assemblies with the Design Assistant, but i am afraid that if i will choose one of them and change the part file's name, the other assembly will be damaged. is it true?
I think this might happen because when i open only the part in Design Assistant, it doesn't let me change it's name, so, Design Assistant might not know where this part is inserted in.
When I open up multiple assemblies at the same time Inventor cant find some of the part files, even though they are on my system. Many times if the part is in an assembly more than once, some of the instances will be there and only one or two instances will be "unresolved", of the exact same part. I can open each assembly one at a time and it will be fine, but that can be time assuming. I wasn’t able to find any other threads with a similar problem.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am having some trouble with assemblies. What I want to do is, create multiple assemblies with moving parts and then assemble them all in one assembly. When I do this, the assemblies with moving parts come in as "blocks" and the parts will not move.
View 8 Replies View Related We use a similar sub-assembly in almost every assembly we design. So what I would like to do is make a template from this sub-assembly that I can make adaptive, constrain to the proper parts and have it resize to the main assembly. I've been trying to do this for a few weeks now with little success.
I have seen tutorials make adaptive part templates but never adaptive assembly templates. Is this even possible?
I know you can't make individual parts adaptive to multiple assemblies without saving each part as a different file and I think that's where my problems are coming from. Even though I save the template as a different file is it still referencing the original adaptive part in my library folder? If so, is there a way I can make it not do that? I may be way off base there too I don’t know.
I am working in an Inventor Assembly .iam, I have about 250 fasteners (screws) that are constrained to a flat washer and lock washer. I would like to put them in as a single unit (sub assembly if you will) and then promote or explode them in the top level so that my bom has 250 screws, 250 washers, and 250 lock washers all at the same level, not associated to one another except thru the constraints that were entered in the original assembly. I have tried Promote but that doesn't work because it removes the washers from the original file and I end up with only 1 instance of the assembly. Am I approaching this incorrectly? Is there a better way? I run across this scenario with different components quite often.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIf you have created a sub assembly and inserted it into an upper level assemby, is there a way to bust up the sub assembly at that level?
The issue arising is the individual components need to be called out on the upper level, but in the drawing are all showing up as the same balloon.
I've attached a screenshot of some "webbing" I have going on between regions in my corridor. As you can see on the left, there's the start of a left turn pocket lane, which is why I have two different assemblies. This is just one instance, but this is happening along my entire corridor. I've given up on trying to resolve and have made gaps in my corridor. But me being an engineer, gaps bother me and would rather figure out a solution. I'm wondering if it has anything to do with point codes?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a proposed road with a varying curb line. There is a minimum 5 foot tree lawn between the back of curb and sidewalk. I have used a lane transition and attached it to an alignment to get the curb to follow. Also used the urban sidewalk with buffer widths.
How do I connect the back of curb to the sidewalk and keep the sidewalk in the same offset from the baseline. In the attachment, I have used a zero inside boulevard width and slide the sidewalk over from the curb line in my assembly. Will this work?
I have Civil 3d UKIE. Since the installation of service pack 2 the British std kerb appears on the screen as 2circles approximately 2 meters apart.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to construct a complex corridor of urban highway. To simplify corridor i've made assemblies for each side of the road (see picture). This solves problem of countless number of regions (and assemblies) that I'll need to set if assemblies are for whole profile.
The problem with seperate assemblies for each side of the road is that I cannot connect them using Median subassembly because Marked point and Median are in different assemblies.
It sounds like the transition should happen automatically (although some tweaking may be required).
But for some reason, I'm NOT getting a transition.
I had one assembly for the entire length and the designer wanted to have the curb stop at 0+40 and from 0+40 to the end, he wanted NO CURB--just an EOP.
So I copied the assembly, modified the copy so that there was no longer a curb and attached the shoulder (that was previously connected to the curb) to the EOP.
So the codes should all be same. I just attached a dwg file (created/saved in 2012) with my two assemblies in it.
Here's a screen shot of what I'm getting:
When I click on Tool Pallets, I get the Metric Subassemblies Pallet, even though my drawing units are in feet and the Properties Pallet that comes up is in feet. How do I bring up the Imperial Subassemblies Pallet?

How I can put the above mentioned Sub-Assemblies in a CUT condition? They all default to a Fill condition (Attachment Point at Top of Wall). I need it to have the attachment point at the Bottom of wall. I cannot seem to find where to do this?
