AutoCAD Civil 3D :: 2012 - Pipe Structure Editing - Changing Preset Lists For Structure Sizing
Nov 4, 2011We use C3D 2012 (metric only) - We are attempting to customize our list of structures for Sanitary Sewers. The structure list shows sizes we do not use and we would like to modify them. However, when we try to select the "Inner Diameter" it displays a list of sizes that we can not seem to modify or add to.
I have looked at some of the XML files to try and modify or add new sizes (example: AeccStructConcentricCylinder_Metric.xml) , but they do not seem to be recognized even after I restart the program.
Here is what the file looks like:
<ColumnConstList desc="Inner Structure Diameter" dataType="float" unit="mm" name="SID" id="CCL1" visible="1" context="StructInnerDiameter" index="0">
<Item id="i0">1200.0000</Item>
<Item id="i1">1350.0000</Item>
<Item id="i2">1500.0000</Item>
<Item id="i3">1800.0000</Item>
<Item id="i4">2050.0000</Item>
<Item id="i5">2300.0000</Item>
<Item id="i6">2550.0000</Item>
I tried modifying the last line replacing 2550 with 3600.
I also tried adding a line <Item id="i7">3600.0000</Item>
I saved the XML file and restarted the program with nothing changing that I can see.
Looking for correct file(s) to edit so I can modify the LISTS that come up in the piping modules.
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: How To Get Pipe Structure To Be Sphere Like Null Structure
Feb 12, 2008One good thing about null structures is the way they display in 3D. They cover that gap in the pipe segments. Can I steal that shape?

May 24, 2013I have a need to save coordinates points for a couple of objects, so I decided to use a structure object.
Here is my structure for an 8 sided polygon:

It says "Access of shared member, constant member, enum member, or nested type through an instance; qualifying expression wil not be evaluated"
how I can get the sub to see the points defined in the structure?

Oct 20, 2011I've copied over some hardware from the CC to our custom library... washers and bolts. How can I change the BOM structure of the parts to Phantom, I really don't want them showing up in parts lists... and I'd prefer not to just shut off the visibility at that level. They are all set to "Purchased"... can this be changed? I tried opening the part and setting the default to Phantom, but since it is a CC part, I get an error message.

Jul 26, 2012Let's say i want to draw a bike. In the 2D IDW of the wheel I want to see the frame as a reference. So, in the .iam of the wheel the frame subassembly is inserted and checked as reference. Also, a new level of detail is created that surpressed the frame.This level of detail is used in the overall assembly of the bike.
So, I end up with several subassembly's that contain other subassembly's just to reference them in the IDW. It would be better to have just one master assembly and create several IDW's from that assembly with different LOD and reference settings.

AutoCAD Inventor :: BOM Structure Automatically Changes?
Nov 2, 2011I am working on an assembly and trying to build a BOM. I am using the BOM editor to change everything on the fly but I am running into an issue. For some reason there are a few parts that don't want me to change their BOM structure. I change them from "Normal" to "Purchased" but they instantly change back to "Normal". I have all the files checked out and in the parts document settings it's BOM structure is actually correctly labeled as "Purchased".

AutoCAD Inventor :: Sub-assembly With Two Different BOM Structure
Jun 6, 2013I need to have a sub-assembly (named ass1) with two different BOM structure: one should be normal and the other should be phantom.
The normal one I need to use it in main assembly (named assy2). In the drawing of assy2 I need to show the assy1 in the Part List.
The phantom one I need to show in another assembly (named assy3). In the drawing of assy 3 I need to show the components of assy1, not the assembly.
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Structure Insertion To Pipe
Jul 31, 2012I have this block called gate valve. The base point is at the middle of the block. When I use this block as a style and insert it in profile it always places itself down low on the pipe. As you can see the grip is way above the top of the block and I have to move it into place anytime I use one. If I change the pipe inverts the gate valve block style lowers itself once again and I have to move it up into place. I have changed the base of the block but it makes no difference.
This is how the structure look in the object viewer. Notice the one on the right is the block that needs to be raised, however in the viewer it shows placed correctly.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Structure Label Layering
Feb 19, 2013I have my pipe networks data referenced into my Utility drawing and I'm trying to add labels to my structures (catch basins, manholes...). I made styles and selected C-TEXT as the layer for the label, but for some reason they're all on layer 0. The 0 layer is frozen in my viewport but the C-TEXT layer is not, and the labels aren't showing up (but when I thaw 0 they show up)! I can see them in model space and when I click on each label the properties shows it's on the C-TEXT layer...

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Expressions In Structure Labels
Feb 21, 2013We have a Structure Style that places a hidden block at the invert of the structure which uses an expression to accomplish Placing the invert text below the structure. (please see attached).
This particular expression was written for a 1"=30 Horz. & 1"=5' Vert. scale and we use it to label our structures in the profile view.
It works great for the 1:30 scale scenario but we also produce 1:20 & 1:50 scale plan / pfl sheets.
3 label styles can be used to accomplish this but would like to create one that would work for all three scenarios if this is possible? (Goal is 1 expression & label style as opposed to 3 of each).
I thought I had it solved & have tried various formulas but can't seem to get it to recognize the various distortions in scale. (The constant being the 5' vertical dimension for all 3 options)
50/5=10
30/5=6
20/5=4

View 3 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Civil 3D :: Specific Structure Label
May 16, 2013I need to make a structure label that defines the "PIPE FALL" for each incoming pipe. By "PIPE FALL", I mean the elevation difference between the bottom of the structure and the incoming pipe invert elevation.
Actually, I thought it was going to be pretty simple, just by doing:
PIPE FALL = INCOMING PIPE INVERT ELEVATION - OUTGOING PIPE INVERT ELEVATION <CONNECTED PIPE OPPOSITE STRUCTURE NAME>
or
PIPE FALL = INCOMING PIPE INVERT ELEVATION - SUMP ELEVATION <CONNECTED PIPE OPPOSITE STRUCTURE NAME>
I just need to define the elevation difference between the bottom of the structure and the incoming pipe invert elevation.
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Pipe Structure Rim Insertion?
Apr 10, 2012I have setup a reference surface for all of my structures and a sump depth of 0. All of the rims are being inserted about 1.6' above my reference surface. I am not able to grip any of the rims and lower them. It will not allow me to do so. Even if I grip the invert and make the structure extremely deep, I still cannot change the rim. I've had this problem in the past but don't recall how to correct or what I've done wrong in the setup.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Structure Name Slash Character?
Jul 14, 2013The structure name under C3D strucutre properties dont allow '/' character.
Eg:- If I want to name a structre like MH/5899/05/01, this is not possible if I am entering from C3D strucute properties dialogue box.
But can do from Autocad Strucutre properties or via lisp routine.
The '/' character changes to '_' (underscore) if taking C3D structure proprties.
Also sometimes close and reopen the drawing change the '/' character to '_' for some structures.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Civil 3D :: Expression In Structure Labels For Survey
Sep 6, 2013I am trying to make a single point label style that will return a blank line in the label if no data is provided.
The way i have it coded now my label for a structure with only two inverts comes out looking like this:
STCB 500 Rim=300.00
12" CONC N IE=295.00
12" CONC S IE=296.00
IE=300.00
IE=300.00
I would like the number of lines returned to match the actual number of inverts in the structure and leave out the place holders.:
STCB 500 Rim=300.00
12" CONC N IE=295.00
12" CONC S IE=296.00
I can work around this by having a label style for each number of pipes, but i would also like this code to be inseted into a table style and in that case i don't know of any way to assign multiple styles to one table.
My current code looks like this:
RIM=<[Point Elevation(Uft|P2|RN|AP|GC|UN|Sn|OF)]>
<[1 SIZE(CP)]> <[1 TYPE(CP)]> <[1 DIR(CP)]> <[IE TEXT(CP)]><[1 INV(Uft|P2|RN|AP|GC|UN|Sn|OF)]>
<[2 SIZE(CP)]> <[2 TYPE(CP)]> <[2 DIR(CP)]> <[IE TEXT(CP)]><[2 INV(Uft|P2|RN|AP|GC|UN|Sn|OF)]>
<[3 SIZE(CP)]> <[3 TYPE(CP)]> <[3 DIR(CP)]> <[IE TEXT(CP)]><[3 INV(Uft|P2|RN|AP|GC|UN|Sn|OF)]>
<[4 SIZE(CP)]> <[4 TYPE(CP)]> <[4 DIR(CP)]> <[IE TEXT(CP)]><[4 INV(Uft|P2|RN|AP|GC|UN|Sn|OF)]>
LADDER <[LADDER(CP)]>
The problem is that 1 INV-4 INV are being defined by an expression that reads like
{Point Elevation}-{1 MD}
so when no data is intered for my UDP "1 MD" it returns the point elevation. I want an equation that says if rpoitn elevation -measure down=point elevation then no data is shown.
