Drawing Road Cross Section

[Anonymous]

Can nybody plz help me with  how to display Exsisting Ground  levels on cross sections at specified offsets .Whenever i try plotting my road x sections , it is showing offsets at fixed intervals eg at every 10 m or 5 m . However i want my offsets not at fixed intervals but as mentioned in my csv sheet which i import .I am stating the procedure used stepwise to be more specific..

1.) Creating a surface from a csv sheet having PNEZD format

2.) Creating an alignment using concatenate command from excel.

3.) Drawing a profile

4.) Plotting my x sections

I have checked many youtubes but i guess i am unable to get the exact video for my help.I will appreciate if anybody will help me on this.I just need my EG levels at my desired offsets and not at fixed intervals.Thank u.

when you create your sections, you can specify the station individually - moreover, you can specify these visually. If I understand correctly, you have defined points from the file you imported, so you can always pick those points to locate the section location.

Something like this?  I used a band style set to display elevations at grade breaks on the EG surface. 

Displaying surface elevations on section views at specific offsets would be a little more tricky.  It could be done using a corridor and code set.  You could also project objects to multiple section views, and set it to display/label at the surface elevation for that offset.

Along the same lines as Steve's solution, you can label the surface section but turn off the weeding. This is most likely why you are seeing the labels at specific intervals.

Thank u for the response .However i was not particularly concerned about the stations or the specific location .What i wanted to know was (I m sorry i was perhaps not clear earlier) for instance my offsets on the LHS  of the centre line are say -1.375,-2,-2.75,-4.13 etc and RHS say 1.375,2,2.75,4.13 etc against those specified offsets i have entered certain elevations. Now what i want is can my road section display only those offsets and respective elevations in my final section or offsets are displayed only at fixed intervals .I am not acquianted with the various options civil 3d is providing hence i was curious if i can get the section as per my datas.

I just want to see in my section only the offsets and respective elevations i have imported from the csv file . However my section is showing offsets and repective elevation at every 5m or 10m interval which i need to fix at the beginning .
