base course under sidewalk and control sidewalk slope

I checked out a couple older DG topics and there was mention of shape trapezoidal or a generic pavement. I could not find the trapezoid sub. If you use the generic pavement, how you you control its slope.

 

I have a sidewalk where I need to control its slope in various areas and I would want the base course to match.

 

Can you control the sidewalk slope with a superelevation line or how does one go about this?

 

Thanks.

Generic Pavement allows both width and cross slope input parameters, each of which can be overridden during design by assigning a width target and an edge elevation target. Is that what you're asking? Are you familiar with corridor targeting?

What kind of slopes are your aiming for? ADA is pretty strict about sw slopes

Slopes of -2 to +2%. I want to make sure the base course follows the sidewalk slope, similar to a lane. One of the posts talked about the lane coding making code sets difficult.
