AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Subassembly - Variable Earthwork Slopes Beyond Alignments?

Nov 29, 2013

I just want to start by saying I have been extremely impressed with the speed and effectiveness of finding Civil 3D solutions through this forum. However I do not think there is a way to solve the problem below without making a custom sub assembly.

There is a common problem that I run into when modelling earthworks on airfields. All Taxiways and Runways will have sepirate areas that determine the slope of earthworks in that area. As an example I will explain my problem for a Runway.

Any ruwnay will have a Strip area (150m offset from its centreline) and a Clear and Graded area (105m offset from its centreline). Therefore any earthwork slopes between the runway pavement edge and 105m offset from the centreline will be determined by the requirements within the Clear and Graded Area. Likewise any earthwork slopes between 105m and 150m offsets from the centreline will be determined by the requirements of the Strip area.

My problem is that when overlaying a runway, the new earthworks required may extend beyond the clear and graded area (and into the strip) at some points but not in others.

Therefore I would like a sub assembly that does earthworks at a set slope unless it passes the clear and graded line where it would then continue the earthworks using a different slope. It should be pointed out that the clear and graded line will be present along the entire length of the runway and the earthworks may or may not extend beyond it.

Just for the sake of clarity, when I say earthworks, I mean the subassembly within autocad that will "Cut or Fill" at a set slope until it reaches a chosen surface level. Similarly the "clear and graded line" and "strip line" are 2D and mearly delineate the areas in plan.

save time and make my model more dynamic. As it stands I have been getting around this problem by modelling the earthworks at the initial slope (clear and graded area) and then manually amending the corridor to use a different assembly where the earthworks extend beyond the clear and graded line.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Subassembly Composer - Ditch Depth In Fill Condition

Feb 2, 2013

I am trying to create a custom subassembly using SAC 2012 that will place a 1' deep ditch at the bottom of the slope in a fill condition.  The trouble I am having is how to hold a consant 1' depth on the backslope and vary the foreslope since the daylight offset and elevation is variable depending on the slope of the existing ground.  I need the attachment point to be the edge of the shoulder so it seems like a loop that varies the foreslope length would be required but loops are not allowed.  I will also have the option to target a profile but I also need the ability to hold a constant ditch depth.

How to model this condition.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Import Subassembly API For Custom Subassembly - Error?

Nov 12, 2013

When I use ImportSubassembly API to import my subassembly created by Autodesk Subassembly Composer  into my civil project, it reports error-"eFilerError".

the code like this:

atcFile = @"D:9f92eaa4ef514ac982518852e1169932.atc";
itemId = "ab660722-c69d-4ade-b373-0e9f99c94e55";
SubassemblyCollection subassemblyCollection = cDoc.SubassemblyCollection;
ObjectId subassemblyId = subassemblyCollection.ImportSubassembly("TestSubassembly", atcFile, itemId, this.doc.Editor.GetPoint("Select import subAssembly location").Value);

However, it is OK if to import subassembly provided by Cilvil 3D.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Slopes And Angles In Profiles

Aug 31, 2012

I am using Civil 3D 2012. I am drawing a water line in a profile with a vertical scale of 1" = 10'. I am trying to draw lines at 45 deg angles to account for standard fittings.

Now, I tried to block a 45 deg angle and exaggerate the y scale, but for some reason this does not work well mathematically. Is there a way to draw lies at a certain slope, or at a certain angle from another line, while taking into consideration the scale exaggeration?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Surface Slopes On Grid

Nov 20, 2013

I was wondering if it's possible to add surface slopes on grid (similar to how there is a tool for adding spot elevations on grid). I can do them individually at a grid spacing but that's tedious, and considering you can add spot elevations on a grid, I'm not sure why this wouldn't be possible. 

If there isn't a built-in tool for this, would it be possible to make a block of a bunch of one-point spot slopes and you simply choose which surface & the insertion point when you insert the block?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Subassemblies At Different Slopes Targeting Each Other

Nov 15, 2013

I have a ditch and a road that need to follow separate profiles but be integrated with each other as a single corridor and the ditch's 3:1 slope needs to meet up with the road's 2% slope.  Is it possible to have the two subassemblies target each other without having to create a dummy surface or a feature line for targeting to?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Use Different Slopes To Create Pond?

Apr 7, 2013

I have a surface and i have the outer border of a pond i want to create (see attachments). What makes it difficult for me is that different areas of the pond have different slopes. The area marked as "A" has a slope of 1:5, the are has a slope of 1:2 and the rest of the pond has a slope of 1:1.

My problem: I do not know how to grade the borderline so i end up having a surface with different slopes as my pond.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: How To Query Drawing

May 28, 2013

I downloaded a shape file from URL....that contains all of the streets in a vicinity. All of the linework has object data attached that contains street names. I have hundreds of streets shown, but i only want to show the name of a few of the streets. right now i am coping the name out of the properties and pasting it into a mtext. I know how to query the drawing and attach the name to all of the streets, but it creates way to many to delete.

How i can just pick the streets i would like to label and label just those street?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Corridor / Surface Style To Display Slopes

Jun 6, 2013

I am looking for either a corridor style or surface style to display slopes while in plan view while working on a corridor. I know you can turn on slope arrows as a surface style, but I am actually looking for the grade to be displayed next to a slope arrow. Hopefully I am explaining it properly.

I just am looking for a better way to spot errors before putting surfaces into machine control without checking station by station in the section editor.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Topographical Survey That Show Different Gradients / Slopes

Feb 26, 2013

I am new to Civil3D And I am using it for one purpose, Im working at producing planning drawings for solar farms, and the client has asked to me produce topographical surveys highlighting where the gradient or the slope is greater than 15 degrees. Is there someway i can use Civil 3d to do this?

Ideally im looking at producing a 3D Model which has shaded areas for the areas which are above 15 degrees. And Hopefully another shaded for areas between 15 and 10 degrees, 10 and 5 and 5 and 0

The topographical surveys i am downloading at the moment are from a site called promap and are DSM Type?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Different Surface Cross Slopes And Super Elevation

Mar 6, 2012

Our provincial standard requires subgrade and subbase surfaces to have a normal cross slope of -3%.  The base and asphalt surfaces have a normal cross slope for the driving lane of -2% and -5% for the shoulder.

I have been trying to figure out how to do this in C3D.  I have thought of different ways of handling this for a straight tangent, but have not tested them.  What is causing me the most grief at the moment is how to handle this in a curve with super elevation.

The transition will be different for -2%, -3% and -5% Runout distances. 

Can C3D handle this? What about using Subassembly Composer?

(I should mention that I have tried with Subassembly Composer, but I am not sure how to deal with superelevation.  -

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Takeoff Surface Area Of Daylight Slopes

Feb 28, 2012

What approaches are available in civil 3D to takeoff the surface area of daylight slopes?Which do you recommend for given scenarios?

I tried compute materials but the volume report for cut and fill area is zero - so either I missed something or the compute materials for surface area does not work yet. Then, I tried the QTO manager and linked the corridor codes slope_link and daylight_fill to payitems. Slope_link has a QTO of 1,458,099M2 and daylight_fill has 913.39M2; I have more confidence in the daylight_fill takeoff.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: GENIO Import Query

Nov 2, 2012

I'm using the GENIO import tool and have run into a problem - the data is imported but due to the way the data is used in MX there are a multitude of crossing 3D polylines (see screenshot).

The strings are all "L" strings which are typically used in MX to define open areas where spot levels are surveyed (would be points in C3D).

The only way I can see to get around this is to create Civil Points at each vertex and use these in the surface build - any better solution (apart from requesting a triangular DTM of the MX surface)?

Is there any chance do query with excluding some data.

For example, I have 20m contours and I'd like to separate them to major and minor one.

I can extract major but not minor contours because there is no not equal query operator.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Existing Ground And Design Profile - Label Slopes

Dec 15, 2008

I have an existing ground profile, and a design profile. All I want to do is label the slopes of the design. When I click my line label style and turn on the text it labels the existing ground and the design ground. I cannot find the setting in my two profile styles to turn the slopes off in the existing ground.

Oh, how can I get a tick on the V.C. dimension line?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Create A Label For Slopes In Cross Sections For Surface

Apr 30, 2012

I am trying to create a label for slopes in cross sections for a surface created from breaklines using gade breaks as you can not weed segment labels

I am weeding the labels out based on the change in grade of the section profile and making the label text high very small of the labels I do not want to see. But the first label returns ??? because there  is no grade coming in so I get ??? instead of something usefull like null. Any way to convert?? to something you can evaluate and use.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Point Group Query Invalid With 2012

I'm using civil 3D 2012 for 2 weeks now. When I create a query to include or exclude points in a specific point group I get an error. It doesn't allow me to build a query with decimal number but only with natural number. 

Everything was fine with my old civil 3D 2011.

The problem is with civil 3D 2012? or maybe their is a magic switch somewhere to allow me to use decimal number?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Creating Objects (Feature Lines / Grading) With Naming Template Query

Jun 26, 2012

When creating Feature Lines, I wanted them to be e.g. Step Line 1, Step Line 2, Step Line 3 etc so I amended the name template to suit. I created multiple from objects and the naming convention worked. If I did features individually (as I wanted certain ones in certain sites) it worked for the first feature but reverted back to the default Feature line name on subsequent entry to the dialog i.e. it had "forgotten" the template name just set.

Am I missing something to get this to work correctly or is this how it's supposed to work i.e. useless for individual feature line creation?? This also happens for gradings.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Copy Subassembly To Create Similar But Different Subassembly

Sep 27, 2013

(in Inventor Pro 2014,64 bit):

I've made an stairs assembly that contains adaptive parts that are all controlled by the assembly parameters.

Here is my assembly and the controlling parameters. The stringers on the side are made with the frame generator and use the "extend" feature to get the appropriate length, as driven by the parameters. The reason I used frame generator is so that I can easily change sizes of the stringers down the road, if needed.  I chose to make the parts associative so I could control all of the parameters from within the assembly instead of opening each part separately.

My goal now is to be able to use this assembly (or something similar) as a template to create new sets of stairs, all to be placed in the same main assembly.

I attempted to duplicate all of the parts (append a "2" at the end of each file name and replace components in the new set of stairs with the 2nd version) but ran into problems with the two stringers. I can't figure out what to do to get the Frame00001 and Skeleton00001 to reassociate to Frame00002 and Skeleton00002. So any time I change my slope, the original stairs will end up trying to copy the new stringers instead of keeping the old ones.

how can I make this assembly reference a new frame, and secondly?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Varying Depth Overlay
