This is a very simple and powerful piece. Similarly to a marked point, this piece must come before the other pieces you intend to control with it. Create profile data in a text file, import it as a profile, and control anything. Brilliant.

Thank you Drew for the kind words! I wish I could take credit for this workflow but I'm afraid I can't. Peter Funk was kind enough to share this technique with me recently that he learned from his many engagements with Civil 3D users. I thought the idea was brilliant and wanted to pass it along. I like to think of myself as more of a "pizza delivery guy" when it comes to this workflow :)

This workflow also can be used for slope and/or grade transitions. Within the Subassembly Composer, create the .pkt with one difference: set the Input/Output Type to Slope or Grade, depending on the purpose of the Number Generator. This works wonderfully for a return side slope condition where my ditch foreslope transitions from 6:1 at the baseline PC, to a 4:1 slope at the baseline PT. Thanks so much Jeff!

Its not actually necessary to change from elevation to slope. To carry out superelevation (slope changes for any reason) using this method, slopes should be in the decimal format. I.e., a slope of 2.5% should be as 0.025. So on the profile you should be at an elevation of 0.025m in metric. Changing from a camber to superelevation where your lane slope is -2.5% to 2.5% you would be going from -0.025m to 0.025m. Should give a grade of 0.5% of the profile.

I've watched your videos numerous times, but things seem to go wrong when I attempt to set the output parameter to something other then zero. When I open my properties the output parameter value of 0.000 is greyed out and it will not allow me to change it. What am I doing wrong???

Hi Jeff, I haven't seen you in about 25 years. I have been at one of your old stopping grounds for about 10 years now where we first met. Back with C3D2016 I made some custom sub-assemblies but the sub-assemblies did not display in the cad file when another user opened the file. Has AutoCAD fixed that? I saved the pkt files to a network location but it was too much of a pain for others to work with so I gave up on the concept.

Hi Jeff, I don't have a lot of colleagues to learn new C3D techniques from, so your tutorials have been priceless. I am trying to use this technique to transition between slopes and grades. For example, if I want to transition between a 2:1 to a 3:1 slope do I set my profile values as 2 and then 3? It looks like for grades decimal fractions are required. For example, a 2% slope needs to be represented as .02 on the profile. Is that correct? Thank you for all your great work!
@saijay8309
Ай бұрын
I know this has been a long time, but for anyone else coming to this video to carry out superelevation using this method, yes slopes should be in the decimal format. I.e., a slope of 2.5% should be as 0.025. So on the profile you should be at an elevation of 0.025m in metric. Changing from a camber to superelevation where your lane slope is -2.5% to 2.5% you would be going from -0.025m to 0.025m. Should give a grade of 0.5% of the profile.

so even though the new profile is a vertical representation, the number generator is calculating the horizontal transition based on the vertical representation. basically getting the numbers only, station and vertical offset and using them both as horizontal numbers. Is this fare to say?
@JeffBartelsCAD
5 жыл бұрын
Yes, you are on the right track. The profile is not a vertical representation. It is simply a graphical way to define numeric values along the alignment. The custom subassembly part ("number generator") pulls those numeric values from the profile and then passes them to a subassembly via. an output parameter. Hope this helps!
