AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Section View From Alignment?

Jun 20, 2013

Right, I'm working on a pressurenetwork for a new drinkwaterpipe. I created an alignment from network using the launch pad in the associative tab. 

The alignment is crossing several other pipes and cables. What I made using the alignment is a surface profile and the profile of the drinkwaterpipe. Now I want to project the crossing cables and pipes into the profile view. 

Now unfortunately it doesn't 'cut' the crossing cables and pipes at the alignment intersection, which would result in circles in my profileview. Instead it projects whole strengs of pipe. 

Is there any way to create a section view from an alignment from start to end, instead of sample lines perpendicular?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Get Alignment ID From Section View?

Nov 28, 2013

With ProfileView I can get Alignment Id.
 
pv= trans.GetObject(entRes.ObjectId, OpenMode.ForRead) as ProfileView; ObjectId idAlin = pv.AlignmentId;

 Now, I want to do  the same but  for SectionView.
 
sv= trans.GetObject(entRes.ObjectId, OpenMode.ForRead) as SectionView;
 but there isn´t :          sv.AlignmentId;

Are there any ways to get Sample Line Group Id from section view either section view name  or id?

I would like to get station value from selected section view by pick too.

Launching alignment grid view/alignment entities,

I’m wondering if there is a way to launch alignment grid view/alignment entities (attached) without the need to first launching “alignment”? This dialogue box is quite essential in editing the values of radius, degree of curvature and deflection angle for the selected curve.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Unidentified Section In Section View

Nov 8, 2012

I am having an issue when producing a section view with my corridor.  I have a corridor and corridor surface, as well as an existing ground surface.  I create a sample line group and sample EG, Corridor Surface, and Material.  When I produce a section view I get 4 sections in the view: EG, Corridor Surface(with the corridor surface naming convention), and an additional section simply called "Corridor Surface". 

This last section is strange in that it seems to be using the correct assembly, but not targeting the correct features.  Also it has grips at all of the vertices which I havent seen before.

And the strangest part, when I click on properties for this section and go to section data, the columns for Description and Data Source are blank.

If there is no data source, then where is this section coming from, and why is it showing up when I did not specify that it be created.  This is a real mind boggler to me and makes no sense.  Screenshot attached.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Mark Items In Alignment View To Display In Profile View?

Dec 20, 2012

I was wondering if after drawing an alignment, creating a profile, and profile view, is there a way I can mark items along the alignment so they could show up in the profile view.  I am laying out a pipeline and want to have the profile display a marker for items such as tees, elbows, reducers and other items.  The marker I would like to use will be something like the vertical style grade break markers.

Also on a side note, as each of these items will have a different name, is there a way that I can add these markers and then have each one with a unique name?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Profile View Empty Or Missing - Cave-in - Section View

Nov 28, 2012

1. I had trouble with profile view of the alignment line shown. What step am i missing? Are there things that is turned off?

2. How can I best come up with the right volume to fill.  

3. Do I need to learn the grading tools? or could i get buy with a section profile from the alignment. ( it is not even an alignment yet) 

4. How to I render a rock fill in this cave-in.  

The attached aerial image , has survey or cogo points  that are imported to surface, to become surface points. . So I wanted to create a surface profile  below  and an outline of  fill  above it.  Iideally the side profile would look like a trapezoid, where the base is the surface proile and top would be the design embankment. 

But the reason , a surveying crew went down and took shots at the shoreline and a couple shots around the cave-in walls (higher elevation on the cave-in wall cannot be surveyed, although I coud have used a laser , did not)  is so that a more accurate volume of the cave in can be obtained. I tried to label how far the road edge is from edge of the cave-in . Norice the higher elevations are the top edge around the cave in area. 

The ouline for the embankment will be a mild slope then breaks to a more steep slope. like 4 :1 , then 1.5:1

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: How To Create A Well-detailed Cross Section Of An Alignment

I have been using the "Create Surface Profile" to create cross sections of a road at various points using separate alignments (at the various points).  I was wondering if there was a more sophisticated way to do this?  When comparing my work to other plans it seems that this method is juvenile.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Import Alignment And Profile View Disappears?

Aug 8, 2013

We are working together with another firm here in town.  The are doing the road and we are doing the utilities.  They have established the alignments and profiles.  When I import them all the data comes in.  For whatever reason I do not have their profile views so I create my own profile view and put their profiles in them.

When they send an updated .xml file of all the alignments and profiles, they import okay but my profile views disappear.  I assume it's because in their .xml file that I import, there are no profile view defined.

Is there an options when you export and alignment to an .xml file that you can include the profile views with it as well?  This way when I import them I would get them.

When I create layouts using the "All layouts in the current drawing" option, the north arrow does not align to the viewport rotation.  

But when I use "Number of layouts..." and "All layouts in one..." options, the north arrow block aligns correctly.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Alignment Superelevation Labels In Plan View

Dec 30, 2013

Is there a way of adding superelvation data such as full superelevation cross slope to an alignment curve label in plan view?

In my case we add a label for each horizontal curve with critical curve data such as PI Station, Delta, Degree of Curve, etc... but I can't seem to find a way of adding any superelvation information to the plan view as a label.  Ideally I would like to be able to add the maximum cross slope value and superelevation critical stations to the label.

There is a way of adding the superelevation critical stations a labels to the alignment similar to how PC's or PT's  are labeled, but it does not give the cross slope value.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Section View Style

Jul 27, 2010

We have a project where the alignment is not in the center of the section (it's along one edge of the project), but we want the Title Annotation ("STA. 165+00") to show up in the center of the sections.

If you choose "Center" justification in the style, it "centers" it about the zero offset, which in our case is actually the left side.

Is there any way to truly center this call, short of turning it OFF and manually creating separate labels?

Unfortunately, I can't use "Center" and give it a "Y" offset, because the alignment does vary slightly (±30 feet) within these 250' cross sections - which would cause the label to vary by that much also...

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 :: Long Section View

May 11, 2012

I am working on a drawing for the COE.  They require that the horizontal scale is 1"=20 feet for cross sections.  Unfortunately the sections that I need to cut are so long that they don't fit on the page.  Currently I am creating multiple viewports in paper space and creating split section views in that way but it is starting to get out of hand.

Any better way to handle sections that won't fit on a page?  I can't change the scale.
