  Civil & Survey

Duration: 1 Hour

WEBCAST - Civil 3D:
REAL ROAD RECONSTRUCTION
Designing from the outside in.. (from a Council in WA)

1:55 to 2:55pm New Zealand Time
11:55 to 12:55 NSW/VIC Time
10:55 to 11:55 QLD Time
8:55 to 9:55 Australia West Coast Time


A design is usually approached with 2 fixed criteria:
  • We work from the CL out towards the edges..
  • Raising a specific string (footpath) does not bring the entire Kerb object with it - just the 2 strings either side...
Civil 3D has got native functionality to move past both of these challenges - it is specifically relevant to road reconstruction jobs...

Road_Recon

Description:

This is one of these jobs that appears quite simple but becomes more complex as it is investigated completely. This webcast, presented by Sean Twomey, goes through the process of grading the road and producing the full documentation for the outputs.

it's a simple short straight Road with the following tasks/criteria:

  • Resurfacing required
  • Kerbing required
  • Footpath to be regraded
  • Existing Building Line to be maintained...

The interesting side to this is that we are grading the footpaths initially and then working towards the CL from the outside as opposed to the standard process of grading the CL and moving outwards. In this instance, we need levels of the Road Edges to be controlled from the footpath only.

This webast is a showcase of how, using a combination of the standard sub-assemblies from native Civil 3D, the corridor model can be configured to behave in exactly this fashion with constraints and guides for grading the individual strings...

  • Please join us to see the process in action
  • We are always delighted to get comments, suggestions, constructive criticism etc...
  • We will have a sample file available for download for attendees to experiment with after the webcast.
