Any subassemblies allow different top & subbase grades?

In Ontario Canada, the provincial standard is 2% top crossfall & 3% subbase crossfall.  Has AutoDesk ever released subassemblies that allow different grades?  Is there a country pack that has them?

The LaneOutsideSuperMultiLayer and LaneInsideSuperMultiLayer subassemblies allow for different slopes, although the subbase slope is controlled by the inside & outside depths, not the slope itself.

I usually use ShoulderExtendAll for this.  It allows you to specify a different slope for the subgrade

Steve, do you use the shoulder subassembly for the lanes themselves?  I can see how that would work.

Yes that's what I do.  It's a bit of a hassle because the sub has a link with a Top code on the outside edge. You have to use some generic links in the assembly to get the surface working properly.  Here's some pics from a project several years ago.

Came across a problem with this as I was trying to attach a profile to the outer edge of a rural shoulder.  You can't.  I don't know why AutoDESK has to make simple things so hard.
