Work With Civil 3D Alignments




Work With Civil 3D Alignments

Auto CAD Civil 3D is a vastly used design software. One major component of Civil 3D is Civil 3D Alignments.

You create alignments as a combination of lines, curves, and spirals that are viewed as one single object.

Alignment objects can represent road centerlines, pipe networks, and other construction baselines. Creating and defining a horizontal alignment is one of the first steps in roadway, railroad, or site design. You can draw the alignment geometry in various methods. For greater control, you can create an alignment object using the Alignment Layout Tools.

Alignments can be stand-alone objects or the parent object of profiles, sections, and corridors. If you edit an alignment, the changes are automatically reflected in any related objects because of the dynamic nature of Civil 3D.

In this course, you will learn how to work with Civil 3D Alignments. We will be discussing the following through the course.

Introduction to Alignment

Understanding Alignment Styles & Alignment Label Styles and adding alignment labels

Create Alignment from objects

Alignment Creation tools (Fix, Free and Floating Entities)

Create Alignment from Tangent & Curves

Use of Spirals in Alignments

Create Alignment from existing Alignment

Modify Alignment to suit our requirements

Alignment Creation with Criteria Based Design
