Exist & Entry Junctions daylight

Automohan — Tue, 19 Dec 2017 17:19:56 GMT

This is 2d drawing which is exported from MX Roads software, I have input 3d polyline with levels as Image shows & Create the surface below

Is that possible to generate daylight lines (Earth works / slope lines) by civil 3d

thanks

Happy Christmas

if you are in 2017 or above, you can convert those 3d polylines to featurelines, create an assembly of a daylight and apply it to the featurelines as a corridor. You can also use grading objects to achieve the daylight line. Personally I prefer the corridor method.

2017 Is not backwards compatible to 2014 so exercise caution. You can still convert the 3d polyline to featureline and use grading objects to do what you are trying to accomplish in 2014. Above is a link to some tutorials to teach you how to use grading tools
