Ditch inlet catchbasin

[alexRR6ZB]

I'm modeling a storm pond and I need to include an overflow structure in an embankment. is there something like a ditch inlet catch basin where the frame and inlet is inclined with the embankment. I could just use a regular structure but it would be nice if this could section out properly so I don't have to draw it in manually. couldn't find anything on this online. Thanks in advance.

I think your best option is to do it manually. Feature lines are your friend.

[alexRR6ZB]

Thanks for your response Todd. I don't think I get your meaning. If I need to i'll draw in the desired appearance in profile/section view. Not sure what feature lines will do for me. Do you mean in terms of modifying the grading?

[Todd_Rogers]

Yep, that's what I mean. You can also use a feature line to model it and project it to the profile. However, it going to take just as much time to use a feature line with this method, than to just draw it in profile.

[alexRR6ZB]

I'm going to opt to draw it in profile.

thanks for your help Todd. I'm going to leave the question open for now in case theirs another perspective that may come in.

My pleasure. Yeah, there are more that will chime in soon. They may have a hack they use in production.

Post #2 was the answer @alexRR6ZB don't burn cells @Todd_Rogers advise is correct, hell I still hand draw sections (little quick and dirty), so that I don't have to do them in C3D (not saying it doesn't help). Sometimes the best/while not easiest, is most practical and efficient.

I like to use the Generic Pavement Structure subassembly to build things.. it has a lot of capability with coding, depth and targeting.. you could target the embankment in your case..
