GRADING with specific inclination/break value between sections

Dear All, 

 

I have a Case which puts some weight as of finding solution and to be as optimal as possible. 

I have Surface and Specific elements with about 110m of length which have sections of about 10m each. 

I want to make a Grading which assures Aligned Edge between each Individual sections, but also (and here is the trick) - I need the MAX angle between the individual sections to be of up to 1.5degrees. 

 

I can not thing of a proper way how to make that I have max deviation of 1.5degrees (never mind + or - ). 

Attached is the .dwg file and picture of possile solution with Feature lines, but I would need to calculate and bring back the Calculation (in Excel for example). 

Basically I need Slope2 - Slope1 = MAX 1.5deg (2.60%)

Hi @r_zlatinov 

 

  1. You have a surface (looks like its the existing ground).
  2. On this surface are some blue lines (the parallel). For one of them you created a feature line (the red one) and the feature line had elevation from the surface of #1
  3. Obviously you want to create feature lines for all blue lines.
  4. If any feature line grades are not complying with your requirement (max2.6%) then the elevations of feature line to change and be something else....
  5. You want to do the above automatic, not one by one manual.

Let me know if i understood correct. If yes, i have an approach in my mind.

 

Regards

Dear @nkiakas , 

 

Pretty much correct. 
I want as close to the given surface (EG) to create my Grading surface with the grade change of max 2.6% or 1.5degrees. 

It is not 100% fixed to be with Feature lines, it can be smth else as a method. 

 

Thanks for the feedback and interest, and future work on the topic 🙂

Hi @r_zlatinov 

 

If the grade change is more than 2.6% (or 1.5 degrees) then what will be the elevation? Will be the value giving the max difference of 2.6%

Yes, exactly.

Sure it can be lower than 2.6, but let's stick to 2.6.

 

After that the most perfect scenario would be to balance the cut &fill meaning if we lower the value to 2.6 on one or more vertexes, on the neighbouring one to go a bit in the opposite value so can balance the volumes, wether its convex or concave.

 

Excuse me for the late reply.
