Assembly intersection

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I have a assembly question.

I want to do some sub assembly that stop to a certain intersection. But my constraint are slopes and a variable height (see my sketch)

Is this possible ?

I know I could create a first corridor with a sloped surface and a second one with a target surface elevation. But I would whant to skip this step.

Thank you so much!

Not sure if you gave enough info, but;

1. LinkWidthandSlope @ 2% for x distance

2. LinkWidthandSlope @ 30% for -x distance with a MarkedPoint,

3. Link toMarkedPoint from start of Link1.

Should get you what you drew.

IT wont work.

My distance (X) is unknown

Only the height (that is variable) is known

Curious to why you are doing this.  I suspect this will require a custom subassembly instead of using the OTB generics, but; What determines the height variable?

assuming your image represents the assembly insertion point with +2% to the right> variable vertical, then 30% down to the right.

Temp corridor (it can probably be done with on but this makes explaining easier):

assembly1 consist only 2% piece with enough offset to cover the variable height bla bla bla; so you make a big 2% surface.

assembly2: 

MarkPoint on assembly insert, Verical, SlopeOnSurface, Link2Markpoint at end of slope on surf will tie back to assembly2 insert point

Is this what you are looking for (see photo).

I've created a quick pkt in sub-assembly composer.  There are variables for the distance, topslope and bottom slope and providing the intersection point is no more than 100m away from the origin then it should work.

I've not put any link or point codes on it either nor have I put a shape within the bounded area. 

Let me know if that works for you

That is mostly it! 

but I have to set the height of the variable to differents profile.

I mean the assembly follow a profile and the height is linkeed to some other profile.

Is this possible to do that ?

thanks!

I've updated the pkt, changing how P2 is calculated adding a target overide to the variable. I've also added a shape plus some point and link codes.

In the attached picture you can see a simple corridor I've done.  Using alignment and existing ground build the corridor.  I've then applied the alignment and design profile in the target to overide the height variable.

Hope that helps

This is it!

Perfect!

Thank you so much!
