AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Cross Section Data Bands

Jan 2, 2009

I am creating a data band for Finished Ground. I have created a Top surface from my corridor and have sampled that as well as my original ground. I am trying to add data bands to an existing cross section view. When adding data bands for the cross section, I first go to the Section View Properties, add the data band, in this case, "FG Elevations", In the "Section1" column, I pick the Corridor surface that was sampled.

The data band does not display data. I know the data band works, because I picked the original ground as the "Section1" and it gave me the elevation.

I have noticed that under the "Sections" tab of the Section View Properties, and in the "Type" column, the original ground surface has a different symbol than the corridor surface. I have also noticed that if I have only the "Draw" boxes for the sampled corridor surfaces in the section view checked, nothing is drawn the section view. The corridor surfaces seem like they are not really there. Am I not able to retrieve data band data from a corridor surface?? If this is the case how do I go about making the corridor top surface something I can get data from?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Adjustment Of Section View Data Bands 2013?

Jan 14, 2013

I have many section views of a road where I want to calculate ground volumes. I have a curb in a section view and I want that Civil showed me just an elevation at the top of the curb and at the top of the road cover. Is it possible to do that? And also distances: I want that Civil just show me a distance from the center of a road to a curb and from a curb to the edge of the road.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Corridor Section Editor Data Overrides Not Displaying In Cross Sections?

Jan 9, 2014

I have added intermediate sample lines in my corridor.  These sections appear in the section editor and I can make changes to the data.  The changes show correctly in the section editor and section view, however, when I plot the cross sections some of these added stations do not show the overrides.  They are showing the original assembly group parameters.  How do I get all the cross sections to reflect the edited data from the section editor?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: How To Set More Bands In Section View

May 31, 2012

I have a problem to set more bands in section view.

Normaly I word with 3 bands (existing elevations, designed elevations and the distances between them), but now I need another 2 bands:

1) is the diference between the top surface of the coridor and the existing surface

2) is the diference between the bottom surface coridor and the existing surface

I want ot ask maybe there is a setting to not let me make more bands?

In fact I make the 2 more bands but the Civil 3D 2012 and 2013 is not giveing me the data in these bands.

I uplloaded a picture for example to be more clear.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Profile Data Bands For Pipes?

May 15, 2012

In order to have a data band at the bottom of my profile label the station and invert of my sewer pipe I just created a profile along the pipe and then have a data band in my profile that labels that profile.  I have that profile style set to not plot so this way I can leave it on all the time.  This is all fine and well.  I have labels every 100' that label the station and invert elevation but at times I want to label miscellaneous locations along my pipe such as a bend or something.  How do I add an addition data band label to achieve this?  Everything I have found only lets me have these labels at a specified increment set in the band style.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: How To Add Data Bands To Minor Stationing As Well

Oct 3, 2012

We are doing a waterline, approximately 5 miles worth, and I was curious how to add the data bands to the minor stationing as well.  We want to show EG elevations every 25' but so far I'm unable to find a way to make it show. The major stations are fine, I'm just not seeing the "switch" to get the minor ones on as well.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Profile Data Shift Above Bands In Viewports

Aug 10, 2011

I have profiles in viewports were the data from the bands are shifting to a point above my bands.  The profiles are correct in model space but not in paperspace, when I return to a layout tab.  If I go into the viewport and regen then the data will temporarily go back to its correct location. If I switch between layouts the data shift. If I try to select the band data the pick point are above the bands, where they default to.  This affect not one band but all bands associated with that profile;elevations, stations, pipe data.  This wasn't an issue at first it just started happening to the drawing.  The drawings were fine and I plotted out a check set to review and when I go back to fix a couple of things this started happening. 

I have three profiles all set to 1:5. Two viewports are 1:500 and a third is 1:250, three different layouts.  The 1:250 profile only affect the pipe data only and not the elev or the stations data.  I have attached a screen shot showing the same profile in two viewports the left one shows the new default position of the band data and the right one is a regenerated viewport showing were the data should be.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Data Bands - Multiple Surfaces Sampling From One Design Profile?

Jun 26, 2013

I have 2 different surfaces (Existing Ground & Proposed Pipe Invert) that I want to have the elevations shown for in a profile data band, but I want them to show at the design profile's PVIs (Proposed Road).  Is it possible to set up a data band style that samples at one profile's geometry points but displays the elevations from these points from a different profile?  My workaround is to set the data bands to all sample from the design profile first and label over the design profile's data band but I'm hoping for a cleaner solution.  Attached is an image showing the profile view in question.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Cross Section Projection

if i have one feature line i want to project to all sections in a sample line group it would seem you should be able to pick the one line and assign in a label style and you would be done quick and easy. instead if you pick the multiple projection option you get this percentage distance box and it tend to grab stuff you don't want.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: SSA - Cross Section Import?

I'm just starting to get involved with using SSA, and I'm wondering if it's possible to import sample lines/alignments (a la Hec-Ras).  I see that there's an irregular channel editor, but no import options that I can see.  I'll end up with about a dozen or so x-sections.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Cross Section Band

Mar 5, 2012

I have a band label set up for my cross sections that will show existing grade and finish grade elevations at the 0' offset mark of each section.

However, the band does not show when I create my sections. The only way I can seem to get it to show is by right clicking a section, section view properties, bands tab, click 'import band set' at bottom of window, and select they style i want to use. But I have to do this for each section individually. That is a problem as I have over 200 sections for one piece of this project.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Cross Section Direction

Nov 14, 2013

I'm currently working on a cross section plan and was wondering if there was any way I can change the direction of the cross section view.  I'm currently just using 2 sample lines, so just 2 views are needed.  My problem is that it seems like one cross section...the view is facing upstream and the other sample line, the cross section view is facing downstream.

Is this normal?  How come both cross sections don't face the same direction?  So with one x section it's in a East-West direction but the other is a West to East direction.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Cross Section Display

Feb 8, 2012

I am working with cross sections for the first time and have run into a few things I can't seem to figure out. In attachment XSEC CIVIL 3D.pdf you will see how the cross sections currently look in my drawing. 

My questions:

1.  I cant seem to edit the elevation labels on the right side of the section to match the left side. Where/how can I do this?
2.  What is the red line? In some sections it exactly follows the assembly section, but in a few (like this one) it doesn't quite follow. Does this line show where manual editing was done?
3.  Where the pavement ends, there is a vertical line which I only want to show on the two pavement layers, it shows all the way thru the assembly. This also happens at the centerline of the assembly and at the edge of shoulder. I figured out how to turn them all off, but I want the edge of pavement vertical lines there.
4.  Although the assembly section comes in on color 161 which should plot black for my pen setting, it plots true color. I haven't been able to figure out how to switch this.  The second attachment shows a section from a LDD project a few years back which is how I would like this section to plot.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Automatic Cross Section Labels

Dec 9, 2013

create a label style for cross sections that will label the travel way in the run:rise format and will label fore and back slopes in a percent format.  I can figure out how to make them all one or the other, but am having trouble getting them to reflect correctly based on where they are attached.I am having trouble coming up with the actual expression or you can do it thru code set styles, but regardless of settings that I change nothing on the cross section view changes.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Cross Section Elevation Labels

Mar 21, 2012

Attached is a pdf showing the issue I'm having with the way elevations labels appear on the outside edges of cross sections. 

Issue #1:

I added the dimension to show that the bottom of the cross section is actually at 97.5 but is labeled as 98

Issue #2:

I would prefer the bottom of the cross section to be at an even elevation (98 not 97.5)

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Cross Section Volume Display?

Jul 26, 2013

I have been asked to place volumes on cross sections with a certain look, that I am not sure if it is possible. For know I am just going to use text, but I would like to come up with a solution for our template and work flow. Below is an attached copy of a markup I have received asking me to show this information on the cross section similar to how he has written it. At this point I only know how to create the tables of to the side. Is it possible to dynamically show this information quickly like shown below? I have a feeling the engineers I work with will not be happy at all with a table off to the side. I am currently using 2013

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Multiple Cross Section Labels?

Jan 31, 2013

Using 2011 - Having trouble with cross section labeling.  I have multiple label markers such as ROW, and multiple EASEMENT types.  I've created corridors for each label type - each will show up if their corridor has a corridor section line at the same station as the base corridor, but at odd ball stations (like driveway openings)  the labels do not show up, I'm thinking its because I don't have these corridor section lines in each corridor.  Is there an easier work around rather than manually adding the section lines in each corridor?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Creating Cross Section Sheets

Dec 8, 2012

After I create cross section sheets (Output---> generate cross section), the generated sections do not fit in the sheet exactly. In fact, the generated layouts do not cover the sections correctly, and some sections fall outside the created sheet.

It should be noted that I use the "ISO A1 Section 1 to 500" layout which is installed on the default pass of C3D (template folder), and the scale of "view section style" is  set to 1/500. I tried the scale of the drawing (toolspace window---> setting tab---> rigth click on the name of drawing and click edit drawing setting) with 1/500, however the problem was not solved.

Another important issue is that the section views in the "Model space" are shown correctly, but my problem is in the layout space after generating cross sections.
