Corridor Assembly Working With Assemblies Exercise 1: Creating An Assembly

This document provides instructions for creating an assembly for a basic crowned roadway using subassemblies in AutoCAD Civil 3D. The assembly includes travel lanes, curbs, gutters, sidewalks and slopes to an existing surface. Lanes, curbs, sidewalks and daylight slopes are added to the assembly baseline using marker points and properties are specified. The subassemblies are then mirrored to the left side of the baseline, completing the full roadway section assembly.

CHAPTER V: CORRIDOR ASSEMBLY

Corridor Assembly

Working with Assemblies

Exercise 1: Creating an Assembly

This exercise will use some of the subassemblies that are shipped with AutoCAD Civil 3D
to create an assembly for a basic crowned roadway with travel lanes, curbs, gutters,
sidewalks, and slopes to an existing surface.

Create an assembly baseline

1. Open Assembly.dwg, which is located in the DPWH Training folder


2. Click Home tab > Create Design panel > Assembly drop-down > Create
Assembly .
3. In the Create Assembly dialog box, for name, enter Primary Road Full Section.
Click OK.
4. When the ‘Specify assembly baseline location’ prompt is displayed on the
command line, click in the rectangle under the profile views.

The viewport zooms to the assembly baseline, which looks like this:

Add a lane subassembly

1. If the Tool Palette containing the subassemblies is not visible, click Home
tab>Palettes panel>Tool Palettes .
2. In the tool palette, right-click the Tool Palettes control bar. Click Civil 3D - Metric.
3. Click the Lanes tab.

4. Click LaneSuperelevationAOR.
5. In the Properties palette, under ADVANCED, specify the following parameters:
o Side: Right
o Width: 3.5
6. In the drawing, click the marker point on the assembly baseline.

The right lane subassembly is now attached to the assembly baseline.

Add a curb subassembly

1. In the Tool Palettes window, on the Curbs tab, click


UrbanCurbGutterGeneral.
2. In the drawing, click the marker point at the top-right edge of the travel lane.

Add a sidewalk subassembly

1. In the Tool Palettes window, on the Basic tab, click Basic Sidewalk.
2. In the Properties palette, under ADVANCED, specify the following parameters:
o Side: Right
o Width: 0.5
o Buffer Width 1: 1.5
o Buffer Width 2: 1.5
3. In the drawing, click the marker point at the top, back of the curb.

Add a daylight subassembly

1. In the Tool Palettes window, on the Basic tab, click


BasicSideSlopeCutDitch.
2. In the Properties palette, under ADVANCED, specify the following parameters:
o Side: Right
o Cut Slope: 2.000:1
o Fill Slope: 4.000:1
