AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Pipe Ends Inside Of DI In Profile

Jan 8, 2014

I'm working in Civil 3D 2012 and I have an alignment going through 3 DI's and a MH. When I say to draw this in profile view the pipes end inside the DI sometimes. Not at the middle but inside it even though my DI has a near 0 wall and floor thickness. The place where the pipe ends is where the edge of the DI should be but it is being shown outside that for some reason. What can I do? I inserted an image. The piece that I drew that is supposed to be a DI in profile view is rotated wrong.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: 2012 Edit Pipe Networks Set Inverts At Inside Edge Of SDMH

Apr 26, 2013

I created a pipe network from a object (alignment wLpolyline) I want to set my inverts at the inside edge

of my SDMH not the center. I go into Edit Pipe Networks then the vista (table). I don't see a option to do that.

Is there a setting in the SDMH structure style or somewhere else?

As an example I come in at 6250.0 at inside a 48" MH and go out at 6251.0 at other side of MH.

I wanted to use a catch basin that shows the depressed curb & lip like the one in the Pipe Network Video

but it not in my parts Library even when I create a full parts list it still isn't there. Is ther a way to go on line and download part structures?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Pipe Style In Profile

Mar 2, 2013

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?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Creating Profile Of A Pipe?

Jan 6, 2014

I'm trying to create a profile of a pipe.  I have elevation data for the pipe and natural ground I've created a surface from the natural ground then I created and alignment.  Next I created a profile when the profile was completed I  got broken lines and spikes for my pipe not a polyline that followed the natural ground.  I'm at a loss as to how I could fix this and I'm very new to AutoCADD I'm a GIS person.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Spanning Pipe Labels In Profile

Dec 3, 2012

Having problems with the spanning pipe labels in profile.  Sometimes it works fine and others not at all.  It will let me pick the two structures at each end and highlights the pipes, but then it will not let me pick the pipe to place the label on.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Pipe Network Won't Show Up In Profile?

May 15, 2012

I am using civil 3d 2012. 

I have a network that I showed in a profile view and, to creat my proposed pipes network I simply copied the pipes and structures and used network split.

Now I have two networks, but when I project those pipes and structures into a profile they are not visible. 

If I check the profile view properties and look at the pipe networks tab, all the pipes are shown as drawn.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Pipe Diameter In Profile View

Feb 4, 2013

As it stands, if you view a pipe network in a profile view with no vertical exaggeration, you expect to see what is essentially an accurate long section in all directions.  However, rather than being applied perpendicularly from the center line (or arguably the invert), diameter is applied strictly vertically.

Now, this made sense in the days of hand drafting when it was far easier in a vertically exaggerated profile view to simply measure the dimension vertically rather than determining how the exaggeration affects the perpendicular distance.  But with the computer doing the measurements, is this really a problem anymore?  I've debated that to some degree it's strange to consider that the crown of the pipe may be at a (slightly) different station than the invert, but this is simply fact in the field.  And I've also thought that it's nice to be able simply measure vertically in an exaggerated profile, but I can't remember the last time I dug my scale out of the drawer.

All the theory aside, the real problem appears when you try to profile a vertical, or even a near-vertical, pipe.  The fact that the diameter is applied vertically means that the vertical centerline is shifted the length of the pipe radius downward and upward.  In other words, rather than seeing the invert and crown of the pipe, you just see one line, though it's really two lines on top of each other.

I wrote this off for the last 4 years of basic Pipe Networks because I acknowledge that storm/sanitary outside the building is rarely designed vertically, but with 2013's release of the Pressure Pipe Network, I really expected Autodesk to change the way the profile views represented pipes.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Perpendicular Pipe In Structure Profile

Jan 28, 2013

I have a pipe network and a profile for it.  Some of the structures have 2 inlet pipes.  The pipe system more of less goes down a road, so every now and then there is a cross pipe into a structure.  I have masking turned on under the structure style->profile setting.  I want to see the cross pipe, so I found on here that all I need to do is under structure style->view direction (profile)->make Structure Pipe Outlines visible.  I did that and still no cross pipe shows up.  If I turn the masking off it is there.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Pipe Network Profile Views

Mar 12, 2012

I am using C3D 2012.

I have a storm water pipe network and a sanitary pipe network. In the profile view I am displaying both networks. My question is in the profile view the storm pipes are in "front/foreground" of the sanitary pipes. Is there a way to "trim" out the sanitary pipe profile lines where they pass behind the storm sewer.

Kind of like a display order so looking at the profile I can tell which pipe and in foreground and which are in the back ground.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Masked Crossing Pipe On Profile?

Nov 7, 2007

Problems with masked crossing pipe in the profile view? So basically I want to show a manhole with three pipes attached in the profile view and I use style override for pipes in a profile view to show crossing pipe, but crossing pipe gets masked with "Enable part masking" option in the Structure style. So I either can show crossing pipe and projected pipes drafted to center of the structure, or I can see only projected pipes drafted to the structure outer walls, but cannot see crossing pipe.

I would like to see projected (incoming) pipes drafted to the structure outer wall, and crossing pipes. Is that possible? See figure attached.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Perpendicular Pipe In Profile View?

Dec 9, 2013

I have my alignment running up the page, it is the red line. I can show the profile of the  pipes and structures that run with the alignment but I want to she the elevations of the crossing pipes, not just the circle in the structures where they cross but the elevation of the crossing structures and pipes, (str 102-103 and 104-105). Almost like a profile that is cut and looks north (up) instead of the cut looking east west.Can I turn my profile view or take a view at a certain station or do I need to make alignments that run east west to do this? I have included a pedicure for reference.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Pipe In Profile Going In Wrong Direction?

Nov 9, 2012

I have a pipe network (data shortcut) showing in the profile.

The pipe network was designed from station 98+65 to 100+00.

But the first pipe (from station 98+65 to 99+30) is shown going from station 99+30 to 102+60.

The pipe has a lenght of about 65' and some how it is being projected incorrectly.

The profile is shown going from right to left.

See attached image.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Pressure Pipe Deflection In Profile View

Feb 7, 2013

I created a pressure pipe with no bends since my alignment is fairly straight. However, I'm changing the elevations on the pipe using a combincation of the profile view snaps and elevation edits in the properties and it doesn't restrict my deflection to my deflection settings not does it add any bends.

Is this still a missing function in Pressure Networks? Or is there something I'm missing?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Pipe Profile Style That Shows Invert Only?

Jun 14, 2012

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.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Profile Band - Spanning Pipe Labels

Mar 30, 2012

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?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Pipe Structure Not Correct In Profile View

Sep 6, 2013

Every structure for my Sanitary pipe network is showing up properly in the profile view except the last 2.  They're showing as rectangles when they should have the cone on top.  I've checked the properties of the correct ones and the incorrect ones and they're the same style.  I looked at the parts and I couldn't see anything wrong with them.  In the screenshot you can see that the 3 manholes on the left are the correct kind with the cone whereas the 2 on the right are just rectangles.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Pipe Structure Won't Show Up In Profile View

Feb 22, 2012

I've been having a problem with a pipe structure not showing up in a profile view.  I have a single pipe network with everything (pipes and other structures) showing up in the profile when I select them, right-click, and click on "Draw Parts in Profile".  Like I said, this works for all the other pipes and structures in the profile except one.  When I select the structure individually and try to draw it into the profile, it still won't work.  A friend told me to make sure that the structure is within the surface, and it is.

I'm using AutoCAD Civil 3D 2011.
