I am trying to build a corridor using a conditional slope assembly that considers the roadway and links into the lots.
The corridor is divided into 3 regions. All targeting has been assigned.
The first region appears fine. The second and third show no links beyond the roadway.
I am working on implementing Chad Studer's techniques from his presentation at Autodesk University for corridors with conditional subassemblies at the driveways. Basically I created a corridor with two driveways for a test run. When I select the corridor and look at the object viewer, there are several lines going to who knows where at both driveways. But a look at the properties of the finished grade surface generated doesn't show anything out of the ordinary. I had the conditional subassembly look for a polyline on layer "driveway." It appears that there may be a gap in the corridor at each end of the pollyline. I've attached the drawing file.

View 1 Replies View RelatedOn my corridor I am using Link Slope to Surface, using a 3:1 slope. But it is giving me a 3:1 slope radial to the corridor - what I really need is a 3:1 slope between the contours themselves. On the inside of a tight curve, this makes a big difference. See the attached screenshot. Is there a workaround for this?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am doing a overlay design for a runway.
I have alignments and profiles for the centerline and 12.5m either side. I would like to create a surface from a corridor by using the three profiles but extending the slope beyond the 12.5m either side.
I can easially create a surface between the three profiles and alignments, however I would like to extend the surface outward a further 10m in both directions at the same transverse slope. note that the transverse slope is variable across the entire runway.
I tried this using the "LinkOffsetAndSlope" generic link by making each subassembly 22.5m long and linking only to the profiles 12.5m from the centreline. However it seems it simply applies the levels from the 12.5m offest profiles at the full distance of 22.5m.
Designing a tailing dam I use a corridor model changing slope grade from 1:2 to 1:2.5.
There are assemblies and subassemblies with shapes defined for each slope grade, LinkMulti with no target, but how do I make the transition from one slope grade to another one?
In corridor properties I included two regions for each slope grade.
For grading there is a transition function. But the transition for corridors?
how to have exisitng cross slopes display on a bank of corridor cross sections...I see lots of posts on this but I am having trouble finding the answer. The link below from Add a section view grade label only adds "A" slope label.....I want all of them in all of my sections.

I am adding on to an existing roadway. I want to match my exist.cross slope of the road way which will vary.
When I select to use the parameter reference LinkoffsetandSlope I get a slope, but it is in the wrong direction.The linkoffsetandslope is getting the grade from the existing CL of roadway and the existing edge of pavement.
I have an Input parameter called "Construction Slope" of type "Slope" that I would always like to be negative. As i did not find the possibility to restrict end user to inputing only negative value I tried to change the sign of the slope to negative if it is positive by using an "IF" expression (when used as a "Geometry Property" for a new link):
IF(ConstructionSlope<=0,ConstructionSlope,(-1)*ConstructionSlope)
However this expression produces an error: "Compiler error(s) encountered processing expression <...> Cannot infer a common type because more than one type is possible". If i remove multiplication by -1 then the error is gone (and the whole expression becomes meaningless as well of course). See even attached image.
I'm looking to make an assembly to follow the crown of the existing roadway which is to be milled and overlayed. In addition to being milled and overlayed there will be a curb bumpout which will be full depth pavement. The roadway does not hold a constant crown at 2%, it varies which is why I would like it to mimic the existing roadway cross slope. What would be the best way to go about making an assembly to model this. I have attached an image so that you may get an idea of the situation. I have a curb gutter line which I would like the assembly to target in both width and elevation. The single slanted hatch is mill and overlay and the double slanted hatch is full depth pavement (widening).

I am creating a corridor with a simple assembly. On my assembly, I have basic lane and daylight Multiple surface. My target is existing ground.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI want to add different assemblies (some with walls or ditches) along the same corridor at given stations
Can that be done?
1. Attached is a file , when opened show two viewports. the plan view look OK , but the ortho on the right show a corridor not near elev. Of the the alignment and the surface is missing ( I cannot get to the object viewer to show me the model setting) .
Am I in big trouble and had to create a surface again?
2. The end of this corridor you have lines all over the place , I probably need to create a corridor surface , correct?
3. Why is the alignment so far from the corridor model?
I have created a corridor of an exit ramp. Part way through the corridor, the left side slope isn't generated.
The subgrade doesn't exist. In the Sideslope to no side slope.png image that the corridor has a side slope and ditch at 10+600. Also in the 10+600.png image. But at 10+610 there is no side slope. There is OG surface out far enough, but it seems that in the 10+610.png image that there isn't enough OG surface. Orignally there was survey data missing in this area and it was added after the fact to the OG surface. Why doesn't the corridor recognize it, if that is the case. I have updated and syncronized the heck out of everything, but it still doesn't seem to work.
I should point out that this is in meters (the cross sections are 10m apart) and that it is the same Assembly being used for this area. Also all targets are consistant through this area as well.
I'm trying to successfully get through a corridor, but to no avail. I'm certain I'm missing a step, and I'm certain that the step I'm missing is setting a surface to daylight to.
My project: It's a simple grassed waterway in a parabolic shape that is ran on a proposed profile grade up a draw. As you can see in the screen shots, it should daylight to the surface on each side. You can also see that the majority of the profile is deeper than the assembly is tall, so I should have a corridor that daylights on each side with a gradual cut up to the surface.
I profiled the centerline with offsets. I need the offsets to see how deep to lay the proposed centerline in regards to how deep my waterway will be. I get a bunch of error messages when I run the coridor, and they all deal with the offsets.
I am doing public works type project. A simple road widening project. I created an alignment, surface, profile view and basic road assembly (from tool palettes) and corridor.
I created a corridor and referenced it to my "profile view", "alignment" and to "basic road" assembly. When I created section views, it shows only existing grade based on the surface and the basic road assembly is not showing on my sections. I can't figure out how to do it.
how to create corridor, and I have a question about assembly elevation targets.
When creating a corridor, the profile is required as dependent object, which gives the elevation of the centerline of the road. Based on the definition of assembly, the elevation of the corridor at the offset targets can be determined by the profile. My question is if the assembly elevation target specifies the elevation at the offset target too? If so, why both profile and assembly elevation target are required?
I have created a proposed centerline along my existing roadway, which represents along my profile. I have created an assembly for my proposed raod with a crown, and a 2% cross-fall in each direction.
But when I generate my sections, all my proposed assemblies show up in the proper location on my section views, except there is no cross-fall showing on any of them? They are all being shown in my sections as dead flat! 0%? I've been looking for a setting to change this.? I have also deleted, and recreated my corridors and regenerate my sections, only to get the same results!
I have a corridor split and I do not need an assembly for the first part of my corridor do I create a blank assembly for that part of the design?

I've attach a profile of a corridor.
I don't know how to turnoff the assembly points .
I may send another inquiry after this it has to with corridor surface and boundaries.
I did a user defined super for my road. This worked well. However when I deleted the super data. To try something else. The corridor shows 0% camber or crossfall. How do I get the corridor to follow the default crossfall in the assembly again?

I have the assembly setup to build the ditching when there is less than a meter fill, but will not work.
View 3 Replies View RelatedFor some reason I cant seem to target an offset alignment layout profile with my corridor lane assembly. I can target the existing the existing groundprofile with the same offset alignment, but the layout profile when targetted does not change the lane in my cross sections. I can do this with civil 3d 2010, but not 2012. I have tried other lane sub-assemblies and it doesn't make a difference.

i need a shoulder subassembly that varies slope in relation to the lane superelevation slope. i know that i can get a subassembly for the shoulder that will follow the alignment superelevation xml data but in my case i can't use it because we are just adding a shoulder to an existing road. we're not changing the superelevation of the existing road, just milling and overlaying and widening. right now i've created a profile of the outside edge of the shoulder that gives me the correct shoulder slope but whenever i change my centerline profile i have to redo the shoulder profiles which is a real time suck.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am in the process of transitioning from land desktop to Civil 3D. I design roads in steep terrain and sometimes need to have my catch (daylight) slopes change. So my question is, how do I change a daylight slope at a specified depth? For example, from the shoulder of the road I want a 3:1 fill slope to a depth of 10 feet than change to a 2:1 slope until it catches the existing surface. Can this be built into a subassembly such that if the fill is less than 10 feet it will daylight correctly at a 3:1 and if the depth is greater than 10 feet then it carries the 3:1 for 10 vertical feet and then changes to the 2:1 until it daylights?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI built an assembly made of some sheet metal parts.
Now - I wanted it to be easily changeable, meaning: in order that each part will adjust according to the other, for instance, it's length, height etc. , and will move with it and adjust, I first made work points on the mating part edges, and then in the relevant part's sketch ( I made the work point inside of the part, not the assembly!) I projected the point.
I was sure that because I see the work point with the "adaptive" symbol , the workp point will move with the parts if I change the dimensions.
It didn't work: For some reason when I'm changing dimensions, the work point stay where it was, even though it's with the "Adaptive" symbol, which makes me wonder what does it really mean (the symbol) if it point won't move along with the part while it changes.
What is the best way for me to do it? Did I have to project the points/edges in the sketch without doing a "work point' before?
My experience with the inventor lately shows that this method isn't working either. I'm sure there a "right" way to do it!
This is very important and elementary thing to do - to adjust part (with their sketches) according to the other.
