With the default cross slope 2% in place and no profile targets, section views with subject sub assembly come up at 0%
there's some polyline width targets but no verticals...
I can make a small subassembly that can vary it's deltaX and deltaY based on a 3d polyline (or alignment / profile) in the drawing. However the subassembly does not get put in with default perameters outside of the areas where the targets exist.
I have been trying to come up with a decision tree to tell the subasembly to use default values where there are no targets to use, but I have not been able to find the correct syntax that works for those true/false decisions. My VB language knowledge is clearly lacking.....
Looking for small .pkt file to show how it is done?
How can i change (smooth transition) my cross slope from +1.952% at St: A to -2.000 % at Station B. In intersection wizard.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI 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.
how to create the transition portion of a corridor design where my road cross slope has to uniformly go from 3% to the right to 3% to the left. I have the two regions set up, but I cannot get that "middle" or "connecting" region where the cross slope is "rotating" around my road profile center line to create this "+3% to -3%" transition.
I have been searching the internet and this forum, but cannot find a good explanation. There is info out there about setting vertical offsets, but not sure how to do this so the cross slope is uniform all the way through this region (i.e., making sure that if the slope is 1.234% on the right side, I will get 1.234% on the left side, etc.)
In attached file the normal cross slope of secondary road(AB) is 2% Right to left (Right higher). and for primary road cross slope is 2% Left to Right (Left higher). I produced this junction using intersection wizard and cross slope of secondary road only starts changing from start of curb return to match the long slope of primary road. Is this possible to increase this transition lentgh on secondary road to create smooth contours.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a fairly simple corridor, however, I had to modify the alignment, rebuild the corridor and resample cross-sections. Now my right daylight slope won't show up. It shows up in the section viewer, but not the cross-section. I had this problem once before and fixed it, but now I can't remember how I did...I have all targets, sections sampled match corridor sampling etc.

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 have created a road for a pit mine (which is unlike roads I have designed in the past). The road switched back towards itself and I need to daylight the cut slopes to show the limits of the mine/road cut. However, my cut/fill lines are not showing up in my cross-sections, but the plan view is showing the limits of excavation.
I assume this is because my limits are intersecting, from each of the roads, the upper and the lower. How can I get around this, or why are my cross-section lines not showing?
From the subject is there any way to apply Link slope to surface with maximum width
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am working on a project which has numerous existing conduits laid out on the site. The location of the services has be picked up by a surveyor on the surface at numerous location and provided as a 2D polyline. The lines are quite long with a large number of nodes.
I wanted to represent the conduits as say a 100mm pipe and locate it about 0.6m below the surface to get an idea of how it impacts my works.
I tried converting it to a network fails as there is >70 nodes. I really only need to see the conduit on the cross section as I will definately avoid it.
Is there a way to display 3D polylines in cross sections?
I have a survey symbol for a tree that is created using two polyline arcs with width to make a solid circle. It is scalable in the desc key by tree size.
Sometimes when I plot a drawing the tree symbols plot (both paper and pdf) as "spokes on a tire", like a line with a polar array. (Even though the style is created with 2 polyline arcs with width)
If I explode the point object (not anywhere near ideal) then it plots as a solid circle as it should.
I don't maintain the template, I just use it, so modifying the point style isn't really an option.
I have not been able to nail down when it occurs and when it doesn't.
The intersection wizard makes dynamic EOP profiles based off of the cross slope from the centerline. Well the intersection tool doesn't always work with funky intersection layouts. Is it possible to manually create a dynamic EOP profile based on the cross slope from the centerline profile?

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 2 Replies View RelatedI'm not a regular user of civils but have created corridors with regions and road edges in previous version to 2013 with no problems.
Now trying to create a simple corridor in 2013 and when I try to set targets I get the message "no targets found in the script".What does this mean and is there something wrong with my template file?
i've got a pretty long corridor and usually when i open the drawing i have to reattach some of the targets alignments and profiles to get the sections looking correct. pita. is there a way to lock the targets or do i just have to be diligent in assigning the targets?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to get an assembly to work but having no luck. I have a 4' side walk with a (boulevard that varies in slope and distance from the back of curb) on the right side.

I am trying to create a block that contains polylines. these polylines need to be able to have the width of them set individually.
What parameter do i need to assign so that this can happen?
I am having a problem with trying to come up with a way to create an inventor entity that is like an an autocad multi-width polyline. We make some of our lines in our silk screen as multi-width polylines - see example fig 1. I can't figure out how to accomplish this type of line effect in inventor - see example fig 2. We are actively trying to move from MDT2009 to Inventor and i can recreate most everything except this multi-width polyline.-

View 2 Replies View RelatedCan it be done like you can with Text etc?
i know it can be done via lineweights, but you cant "lock" the lineweight in model space,
at the mo, to generate a thinkness in a line i use the global width for that pline.
i dont want to use line weights as i sometimes have multiple lines with different widths on the same layer, i could split the layers, but i'd rather not to.
I have polylines and changed the width to 3/4" and now the Plines are not solid (filled like a hatch) anymore? They are splined as well. I must have changed a setting somewhere and did not know it. AutoCAD 2012.
