Corridor - target a top of curb profile for EOC

I tried looking around here but couldnt find anything...

 

anyway, in our plans we show profiles for the top of curb but for our cooridores we need to have a profile for the EOC. This is easy to do by making a copt of the TC and droping it by 0.375' (for the standard 6" curb we are using)

 

the issue is when we have a redisign to the TC, the EOC same changes have to me made to the EOC. Is there a way to link two profiles so the EOC profile will ALWAYS be 0.375' below the TC?

 

or is there a way to have the corridor use the TC profile to control the EOC, much like I used to be able to do in LDT?

 

Thanks in advance,

Randy S

Been quite a while since I've used LDT, but I can't recall how that would have been done dynamically... But that is another thread.

 

Are you controlling the corridor from TC?, Is you assembly a road section with c&g yada yada? A picture would help.

 

If you extract profiles at your assembly codes from the corridor surface then no worries. If you are creating layout profiles for TC then there will be an update problem.

a generic multilink or link multi assembly would allow you to input the offset and elevation change from toc to eoc.  Thus, you shouldn't need a eoc profile to form the corridor.

Use a generic LinkOffsetAndElevation subassembly from the TOC at the assembly to the EOC point.  In the properties for this subassembly set the omit link option to Yes.  This will leave a point marker where you can attach the curb subassembly.
