AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Pipe Gradient Band Style
Oct 29, 2013
I'm trying to create a profile view band style to display a gradient as a fraction i.e 1/100 rather than a % I've tried creating an expression to do this ( see below) the sum works but I don't get a solution/answer just the sum displayed on the band.Basically the sum is length/change in elevation
for clarification / = divide
Expression
(<[Pipe Start Chainage(Um|FD|P3|RN|AP|GC|UN|Sn|OF)]> - <[Pipe End Chainage(Um|FD|P3|RN|AP|GC|UN|Sn|OF)]>) / (<[Start Invert Level(Um|P2|RN|AP|GC|UN|Sn|OF)]> - <[End Invert Level(Um|P2|RN|AP|GC|UN|Sn|OF)]>)

I'm currently setting up a band set and want to include a band "pipe invert depth" i.e. basically trench depth.
There are properites in the band label style composer for "pipe invert level" and for "cover" and for "pipe diameter" but not pipe invert depth.Is there a way to display the pipe invert depth relative to the reference (design) surface/alignment?
A secondary question to this is can you use basic arithmetic in the band label style composer? eg pipe cover + pipe diameter?

I was looking at placing pipe information into a Profile Band. I see that I can include the following properties in a pipe label in the profile band:
<[Total Slope Across Span(FP|P2|RN|AP|GC|UN|Sn|OF)]>
<[Number of Pipes in Span(GC|UN|Sn)]>
<[Drop Across Span(Um|P2|RN|AP|GC|UN|Sn|OF)]>
Only problem is they don't actually give me the information of a spanning pipe, only a single pipe. I see no way of choosing which pipes will be spanned. Am i missing something in the creation of the profile band that allows me to choose the spanning pipes or is this broken?

Am I limited to the fields that appear on the label for a pipe network data band, or can I add my own customized expressions?

I'm trying to add assign a Pipe Network to a profile view Band in Civil 3D 2011. I was using COM to add profiles to bands because I couldn't figure out how to do it in .NET. But when it comes to pipe networks I don't see how you can do that with COM. How the .NET implementation is supposed to work? Here's the code I have that works for COM, except for the pipe networks. I essentially need to assign the correct pipe network to the band.
public static void AddProfileToBand(this ProfileView profileView, ObjectId profObjId, List<BandItemInfo> bandStyleInfosFromSet, ObjectId profileBandSetId){
using (Transaction tr = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.TransactionManager.StartTransaction())
[code]....

In the Band Style_A pdf you can see the location of my elevation labels, they are below the bottom line of my profile view grid. In the Band Style_B pdf the labels are showing up in the proper location (above the bottom line of the profile view grid). To move the labels to the proper location I changed the "Gap" setting from 12.5 to -24. Is there a way to change this setting in my "style" rather than have to go make this change to the style every time I use it in a profile?

When I generate a band and the points that need to be labelled are very close to each other there is the possibility to stagger the labels (left, right, to both sides).
This works as I would expect it to.What I haven’t been able to determine is whether it is possible to adjust or influence the spacing between the staggered labels.

Is there a way to make the Profile band title a specific text style? At the moment it seems that when I access
Profile Properties>Pick Band Style>Profile Data Bans Style>Compose Label>Label style composer
I go to the Contents (under Text) and edit it to bring up the Text component Editor.
In this if I go to the Format Tab the text style is set to annotative, however under that it says font style as an overide. How do I remove the override and set the style of the text to the text style. And how do i change the text style.

I'm using 2D solid level band surface styles when generating simple flood maps - In order to manipulate I generally have to extract the surface objects (faces or hatches) which gives me a single face or object per triangle within the surface.
I then try and get round this by using a combination of various Lisps and Union to wind up with a single boundary that I can then use in ordinary AutoCAD and 3rd party software. However on big surfaces this is killing me as I have 50k+ triangles, so 50k+ faces or individual hatches, so its causing 15min long unresponsive stalls on my PC.
What I'd like to do is simply export the boundary of each level band to a polyline, or even better to extract the whole solid band as a single hatch object. Is this possible within C3D as it stands, or is there a lsp out there

What I would like to achieve is a section band style for bulk earthworks and simple access roads that shows the design level at Grade Breaks only. The problem I am having is that Grade Breaks are being recognised as where the sample line crosses a triangle, not where the the grade actually changes/crosses a feature line.
A have a number of simple platforms, that I have created using an infill from feature lines, usually these platforms are surrounded entirely by feature lines of the same height. As to be expected, Civil 3d creates a few flat triangles, and as a consequence, all of the points where the sample line crosses these show up on my band style. Is there any way to achieve this band style?

Trying to make some changes to improve reading. The pipes are going to center of structure and would like to change the appearance but maintain the lenght to the center or in last case to the structure wall.
The image explains the 'problem'. Red line should be the correct appearance
There is a way to correct the position?

I have a problem I can't figure out. I have a Pipe Style defined that is set to draw my pipes as double lines in plan using the inside pipe diameter. The problem is that there are a few sizes such as 21" & 30" that will not draw/display the double lines to the correct inside pipe dimension.
It will draw a 27" pipe as 10" & a 30" pipe as 12", but all other pipe sizes are drawn crorectly. I have looked at these in part builder & have also rebuilt my parts list.
What would cause certain pipe diameter not be drawn at the correct size it the style is defined correctly?

I'm dealing with a city that based their drawings on LDD, and they chose to show pipes as just one line on a profile, representing the invert line. In LDD, they pretty much left their pipe profiles as "draft profile" or whatever is used to be called. Now I have to mimic their standard, using Civil 3D. There isn't a handy-dandy style setting that I can find, to do this.

So I noticed that my data reffed pipes were reverting back to their default styles in my production drawings. This wasn't a problem with SP1. I made a support call to our reseller and they mentioned that the only work around was to completely uninstall Civil3d, then reinstall back to SP1. He mentioned that he was passing the information on to Autodesk and he would let me know if they had a fix. Naturally that kind of timing or solution doesn't really work for me. This problem will effect any drawing I have that has pipes in it.
I want to know what you have done to work around this? Is there a better solution than uninstalling Civil3d?

Pipe network storm pipes: Fairly new to Civil3D and trying to set up parts list for the storm sewer pipe and would like the plan view to appear as it does currently. We use a polyline for centerline of pipe, similar to dashed linetype but line and space are the same, width set to pipe width.

I created pipe network for my storm drain project. I have located all the structures (manhole) to all angle point of my alignment as required. Also I "insert" manhole every 400' per local code requirements using the command "network layout tools; structures only. My problem is I couldn't find the tools how to trim the pipe that pass through the manhole. Please see attached pdf file.

One of the things I seem to struggle with is being able to depict a single pipe when it needs to be shown in one profile as a crossing pipe, and another profile where you you show a lenghwise slice through the pipe. I end up tracing the pipe with eliptical objects where I'm cutting across the pipe and setting up more for the lengthwise/sideview of the pipe. Is there a way to have two different styles for the same pipe, one for a cross cut and one for a lengthwise slice?

Is there an easy way to get the geometric extents of a profile view and bands? It appears that in Civil 3D 2013 .NET the Geometric Extents returns the extents of the profile excluding the bands. I don't like the prospects of either doing the math for all of the bands assigned to the profile view or exploding the profile view to get it and the bands as a block and getting the extents that way.

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.

I have an EG and FG data band for sections that works correctly. When i plot sections and it asks me specify surfaces 1 and 2, I choose my EG and FG surfaces appropriately. Then when the section displays the Section 1 and Section 2 are both set to the EG section of that specific sample line. If i change the section view properties manually it works but I'll have to do it individually for each section.
Also, is it necessary to create a FG surface from the corridor or can i get the data band to read from the corridor section itself?

Attached is a drawing with my profile along with elevations in the band.
UPPER BAND - has proposed road elevations on the left and existing road elevations on the right.
LOWER BAND - has pipe elevations on the left and the SAME existing road elevations on the right.
I've been messing around in the profile view properties but cannot hide the duplicate elevations in one of the bands.
