View 2 RepliesI need to figure out a way to sample multiple surfaces for multiple alignments.
Example 1: I am creating cross sections for a river dredge showing the pre-dredge bathymetry, design dredge elevation, and post-dredge bathymetry results. I have 100's of alignments that I need to sample 3 surfaces and display in profile view. Due to the clients requirements for display, using the cross section tools don't work for me, so I have resorted to using a seperate alignment for each cross section.
Example 2: Working in a subdivision with many utility alignments it would save quite a bit of time to be able to choose a group of alignments and sample multiple surfaces in just a few clicks.
I am using Civil 3d 2012. What I have is a surface along railroad tracks. Each set of tracks has a different alignment because they aren't parallel. I have a baseline alignment with my stationing set on that. What I want to do is have one profile view showing the multiple track alignments based on the baseline alignment. I can't use the offset alignment because they aren't parallel.

I'm having a problem with profile shortcuts showing up under multiple alignments. I have 16-alignments and profiles in their own drawings. I didn't create the shortcuts right away as I was still figuring out how I wanted the project dir structure. When I had that solved, I started creating the shortcuts. When I checked them, some of the alignments had up to 6-profiles from other alignments listed under them. One alignment had 3-profiles, and not one of them was for the alignment.
I removed all the profile shortcuts and started bringing them in again. Same problem. This was after shutting C3D down, cleaning up the tmp files and restarting.
There are shortcuts for 36 other alignments, and none of them appear to be affected, only these last 16. Validate Data Shorcuts doesn't do anything.
I am working on a water line replacement job in a residential neighborhood. Some of the streets are getting the water line replaced and some are not. I have created an alignment for the water line on the streets that are being replaced.
When I create my view frame group along each alignment, there are some overlapping view frames from different alignments. I need to create a matchline for these instances. How to create matchlines for view frames on different alignments? Or create one view frame group from different alignments?
I need the actual cross section LINES that are shown in the HECRAS model, not just the alignment... I've tried check marking everything that the "GIS export" option in HECRAS gives you to no avail (all I can get into ACAD is the alignment, not the 74 cross section lines along with it)...

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen creating plan and profile sheets with multiple alignments in the view, what is a common practice in civil 3d?
- Data shortcut all alignments that are in the view into the plan and profile model
- Create a dwg that has all the alignments data shortcutted and xref that into the plan and profile dwg
- Create a dwg for each alignment and xref into an overall alignment dwg via attach and then xref the overall into the pp sheets dwg model.

I'm new to exporting from AutoCad Civil3d 2011 to HecRas and I've run into a problem and not sure what the solution is. I export out my alignment, sample lines and surface data to a GEO file and when I try to import it into HecRas it gives me the error that not all my cross sections are georefrenced, its as though the samples lines past a certain point on my alignment aren't georeferenced (according to HeacRas)

I have a more than 10 number of alignments of road network in MX Road. I imported these alignments into Civil 3D. The problem is I am not able to edit these alignments.

I changed the layers for a few alignments and exported them to Autocad 2007 format, but the centrelines were in single layer only.

I have two alignments that are not parallel that make up one corridor. Each alignment has a separate profile running along it. At stations where I have a template drop in my section editor, it is not representing what is really happening because it just is perpendicular to one alignment. Is there a way to develop a secondary alignment that will have my section editor show what will be parallel to both alignments.

I have tried to explode them into polylines > join the polylines and then reconstruct the alignment again but it crashes on everything longer than 15 miles
I'm trying to create two offset alignments (one on each side of my centerline alignment). For some reason I can only create an offset alignment on the left side of my CL alignment, but not the right side.

I created an alignment from the arcs at my intersections. When I go to the geometry editor under grid view it only shows the first curve.Does c3d support discontinuous alignments? When building edge of pavements at intersections is the workflow to make a new alignment for each intersection?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI cant get this one. I have created an alignment in a drawing and created a shortcut. When I data shortcut that alignment into drawing "A", its all good. Alignment starts at station 10+00. When I do the same data shortcut into drawing "B" the alignment is starting at station 0+83.33. Why?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI need to put a reverse curve on an alignment. I have tried using two free curve fillets,(between two entities, radius). the first curve was fine, but it would not allow the second curve. I also tried using a floating curve ( from entity radius through point) first, but it did not work.
View 2 Replies View RelatedLoving Pressure Pipes so far, taking us a bit to get them setup to work the way we want.
Using Pressure Pipes to design two water mains, the first main is a straight run, and the second one starts off of a Tee that I added to the first. This part seems to be working fine, now when I go back and use the Create Alignment from Pressure Network to create the alignment for the first main everything seems fine, but the second one is where I am running into my problem. When creating it, if I don’t select the Tee that I used as the starting point the two alignments don’t intersect, however if I do select it something crazy happens, my start point for my second alignment snaps to 0,0 instead of the Tee. I have tried a couple of different times with both Tees and Crosses. I get a little bit of a different result with Crosses, if the cross is the start Point of the alignment it behaves the same as a Tee, snapping to 0,0, however if the alignment goes through the Cross it is created correctly.
We have a main line (1 Alignment) and some junctions on that main line (other Alignments), and out GOAL is to create GL (General Layout) sheets, showing Shading, Setting out and Dimensions..ETC.So every VFG (View Frame Group) i can generate cut sheets from it, the Question is
1- How can i "connect" all the VFGs you see in the image attached into one VFG so that i would create them together ?
2- OR should i make separate VFGs like you see i did already , and then create cut sheets for each VFG ?
3- Or am i the only one facing this Problem ?
Any way to label the slope stationing rather than horizontal stationing? This is common when doing long pipeline projects (40 miles) or more in very steep terrain. I am doing one now that is only 1 mile and the 2D verses 3D length is a difference of 100'. 40 miles that would mean it would be off 4000'. The client uses this stationing as a guide to know how much pipe they need. If you would do that horizontally that would be way off the mark.
I am using Civil 3D 2010? Maybe its included in 2012 or could that possibly be an option for future releases since it is a 3D software.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat is the benefit to numbering alignments?
Example: Street CL (1), etc.
When I have a street centerline alignment, I am failing to see any benefit. If I have a change, I want the change, not any old stuff. If I have a need to different alignments for differing purposes, I'd rather give each my own unique name. If I make a change, and I want that change easily reflected into a profile or corridor, wouldn't it be more efficient to let the name remain constant?
Do you allow the program to do this?

I am currently trying to xref a Civil 3d files into auto cad 2d. So far on the model space it works fine however when i try to put it into paper space the labels on the profiles just seems to go crazy. See the attached picture. (First picture where the label are not displaying correctly in paper space and second drawing in model space of the same drawing which shows the labels correctly).
I believe its the annotation that civil 3d uses to generate these text labels but i am unaware of how this can be solved.
At our office We use alignments to designate the pipeline. At our pi.'s or points of intersection We have the autocrat _wipeout circle. It works fine in c3d 2011, but for some reason when We take them into c3d 2012 the wipeout circle goes under the red line instead of above. We have checked through the properties and can not find a display order. Otherwise We are currently inserting a wipeout circle and having to place on At every intersection.

View 3 Replies View RelatedWe have a HUGE number of data referenced surfaces and alignments that need to be moved to a different group of folders. Is there a simple way to do this without breaking the references (each surface/alignment) is referenced into multiple drawings.
The project was divided up into a bunch of little mini projects so now we have 500150_A, 500150_B etc (around 90 of them). Each one has a dwg file with a surface and at least one alignment and that drawing is data referenced to all the other sheets within that mini project. Each project has _Shortcuts, drawings etc.
The powers-that-be have decided to 1) change the project number (from 500150 to 500152) and 2) to bring all these mini projects together into ONE project.
We've confirmed that each surface/alignment has a unique name which means that there shouldn't be a conflict in that regard.
