8 Exercise 1 - Creating 3D Elements for a Pad and Yard Description This exercise set teaches how to set elevations for a pad and yard as well as adding those 3D elements to a Terrain Model. Skills Taught Draping a Pad Relative to a Terrain Creating a Profile for pavement/yard edge relative to an adjacent Profile Creating a Terrain from new 3D Elements Applying a Template along an edge to tie into the Existing Terrain 8

9 Give the Building Pad an Elevation In this section we will drape the Building Pad to the Existing Terrain. We will use the Maximum option, which takes the highest elevation of the ground and uses it for all the vertices in the pad. Note: to be clear, we are referring to a level shape as a pad and a sloped or graded shape as a lot or yard. 1. If you haven t done so already, open the Pad and Parking.dgn [Pad and Parking-Metric.dgn] file. 2. If prompted that Obsolete Civil Data is Found, click Yes to upgrade the data in the file. The file should open to a Lot, Pad, and Yard adjacent to a roadway. 9

10 3. In the Vertical Geometry task, click on Profile From Surface. The options for the tool include the common Information Modeling opportunities (Name, symbology (in the form of Element Template)), Start and Stop input, and the engineering core: Point Selection, Profile Adjustment, and any offsets. We want our building pad to be at least two feet (0.6 m) above the existing ground. We will want the Point Selection to be All (in case the ground rises between the pad corners), and we will want the Profile Adjustment to be set to Maximum to use the highest ground elevation. For this task, we will list the settings and provide the complete step-by-step to completion. Later tasks in the book will include all necessary information but may not include full detailed step-by-step text. 4. For the Pad identified in the drawing, the table lists the relevant tool settings. Step-by-step follows the table. Point Selection Profile Adjustment Draping Option Horizontal Offset 0 All Maximum Triangles Vertical Offset 2 [0.6] Range Name Element Template Full Length (Lock to Start, Lock to End) Pad Profile Linear\Site_Pad Note: If Element Template is set to NONE the symbol is determined by the Horizontal Element s Feature Definition. a. After clicking Profile From Surface, you are prompted to Locate First Element to Profile. Select the Pad graphic. b. At the Locate Next Element To Profile - Reset To Complete prompt, click the Reset button (by default, the right mouse button). c. At the Locate Reference Surface - Reset for Active Terrain Model prompt, click Reset if the existing ground is the active terrain, otherwise click on the existing terrain boundary. 10

11 d. For Start Distance, Lock to the Start by clicking the <Alt> key. e. For End Distance, Lock to End. f. For Point Selection, click the Down Arrow until All is selected. g. For Profile Adjustment, click the Down Arrow until Maximum is selected. h. For Draping Options, click the Down Arrow until Triangles is selected. i. Type 0 for Horizontal Offset. j. Type 2 [0.6] for Vertical Offset. k. There is no feedback that this command has completed. Exit the tool/command by switching to the Element Selection tool. The tool processes and creates a Profile for the pad element. The Locate First Element to Profile prompt reappears, indicating that the tool is ready to profile another element. 11

12 Verify the geometry of the Profile Opening the 3D Model (View 3) to see if a 3D Pad is displayed is important for verification of 3D element creation. The 3D Model (View 3) does not show the 3D Pad because the Profile is not Set Active. This tool does NOT set the new Profile to Active and no 3D entity exists yet. 1. Open a Profile Model of the Pad using the 3D element that represents the Pad (click and hover over it to select the Open Profile Model tool) 2. Open View 2 and place the Profile in it. The Profile shows a level Pad, two feet (0.6m) above the highest point of the ground. If the Terrain (green dashed line) does not show up, it is because the Terrain Model was not Set Active. Set the Terrain as active and it should show up. If the terrain is visible, but the Profile / Vertical Geometry does not show, it may not have been created. Element Information of the Pad Horizontal will confirm the existence of the profile. If no Profile exists, repeat the previous steps to Give the Building Pad Elevation. 12

13 3. Click on the Profile and observe the properties in the Element Info dialog. 4. The bottom group shows the vertical rule: Profile from Surface Rule: 5. Change the Vertical Offset to 0 and observe the change in the Profile Model. 6. Change the Profile Adjustment to Minimum and None to observe the effect. 7. Change the Profile Adjustment back to Maximum and the Vertical Offset back to 2 [0.6]. Note that other rule values, such as Point Selection can be changed as well. 13

14 8. Click on the pad Profile, hover and select the Set as Active Profile tool. Another way to make sure that the Profile has been Set Active is to look in the Element Information dialog. 9. Close view 2. (the temporary profile model can be displayed in any view at any time) The 3D element can now be seen in the 3D Model: 14

15 Create a Yard (or Apron) Sloping away from the Pad In this section we will create the vertical geometry for the Yard surrounding the Pad. The yard will slope away from the building at 8%. We will use the Profile by Slope from Element tool to calculate the Yard Profile from the Building Profile. 1. In the Vertical Geometry Task, select Profile by Slope From Element: 2. The Element to Profile will be the Yard shape. The Reference Element will be the Pad shape. The options for the tool include the common Information Modeling opportunities (Name, symbology (in the form of Element Template)) and the engineering core: Point Selection, Profile Adjustment, Slope, and Vertical Offset. We want our yard to slope 8% downward away from the pad. We will want the Point Selection to be All, and we will want the Profile Adjustment to be set to None. 15

16 3. Here are the relevant tool settings for the Yard: Point Selection All Profile Adjustment None Slope 8% (positive is up, negative is down) Vertical Offset 0 Name Yard Profile Element Template Linear\Site_Yard 4. Check the 3D Model (View 3) to see if a 3D Pad is displayed. (Checking the 3D Model is important for verification of 3D element creation) Note that the 3D Model (View 3) does not show the 3D Pad. This tool does NOT set the new Profile to Active and no 3D entity exists yet. We MUST set the Profile active and we MUST verify the 3D element creation in the 3D Model. 5. Select the Yard graphic. In the Element Information top panel, expand the element tree so that the Profile is visible. 6. Right-click on the Profile, click Set As Active Profile. 16

17 7. The 3D yard element shows up in the 3D Model. 8. Optional: Open a Profile Model of the Yard (click and hover over it and select the Open Profile Model tool) to review the geometry. 17

18 Create a Terrain from the Pad and Yard In this section we will create a terrain of the Pad and Yard. Terrains allow us to see contours, calculate volumes, apply material depth and layers, and can be shown in Profiles of other elements. 1. In the Terrain Model task, select Create From Element 2. At the Locate Element to Add prompt, select the Pad. 3. At the Locate Next Element to Add - Reset when Done prompt, select the Yard. 4. Here are the relevant tool settings for creating the terrain: Feature Type Edge Method Feature Definition Name Break Line None QC_Contours Building Pad Note: the QC_Contours Feature Definition provides a dense but subtle contour display that facilitates identifying errors in grading. 5. Reset to complete selection. 18

19 6. Verify the terrain displays. When complete, the terrain will show according to the Feature Definition settings. The Terrain Model Analysis tools Analyze Point and Analyze Between Points are useful for checking elevations and slopes. 19

20 Create a Tie Slope from the Yard to the Existing Terrain In this section we will tie our proposed building pad and apron to the existing ground. The Apply Linear Template tool extrudes any template perpendicular to any 3D Element. The elements created will not be part of a Terrain Model, but could be added later. 1. In the 3D Geometry task, select Apply Linear Template The primary settings for this tool are the Template to be applied and the Design Stage, which controls the display of the results. The remainder of the settings specify start and stop positions along the element as well as corner sweep angle. 2. Set the Design Stage to 3 Final Top Mesh. Note: The Design Stage cannot be selected from the prompt. It is a Linear Template property and can be changed after creation in the Element Information dialog. 3. Choose the Template from the dialog by clicking the browse button Note: it can be chosen from the Heads-up Prompt by pressing the Alt key and the down arrow: 20

21 The Pick Template dialog allows preview and selection of every template in the active template library. The templates are arranged in the common tree hierarchy of folders. 4. Navigate to and select the Simple Tie Slope template in the Components > Parking Lot / Building Pad > Edge Treatment folders. 5. Click OK to dismiss the form. The remaining steps for identifying the element, start and stop limits and identifying the side to extrude the template. 6. At the Locate Element to Apply Template prompt, select the Yard graphic. 7. Confirm the template when prompted. 8. Lock the Start and Stop positions to the ends via the <Alt> key. 21

22 9. At the Select Side prompt, place a data point outside the yard so that the tie slope ties into the ground outside the shape. 10. Set the Exterior Corner Sweep Angle to 5 degrees and data point in the view to accept. The Linear Template tying into the existing ground is created. The created Linear Template has a number of properties that can be edited in Element Info, including changing the template itself. The Reflect property can be switched to change sides in case it was placed on the inside by mistake. 22

23 Optional: Observe the Effects of Changing the Pad Elevation 1. Click on the Pad and select the Profile in the Element Info dialog. 2. The bottom group shows the vertical rule: Profile from Surface Rule: 3. Change the values and observe the effects. 23

24 Exercise 2 - Creating a Draping Surface and Parking Lot Description This exercise set teaches how to provide simple elevation definitions for horizontally-complicated elements: draping surfaces. Skills Taught/Reinforced Placing reference elements at each end of the Lot for the draping boundary Profile creation with the West edge sloped 2% downhill from the East edge Creating a draping surface for engineering simplicity Draping horizontally-complex elements to a draping surface (lot edges with landscape islands) Grading to Existing Terrain using a Linear Template 24

25 Create East Side of Lot In this section we will create a terrain that will be used to define the elevations of other elements. This terrain does not become part of the finished design. By default, it is put on a level that should never get plotted. Draping Terrains provide areas that have a straightforward elevation (as in drainage) definition that facilitates the profile definition of horizontally-complicated features such as filleted pavement edges, curb islands and landscape or architectural features. Establish the Horizontal Limits of the Draping Surface The draping surface must be large enough to cover all the elements that will use it for elevation reference. Having a long construction reference baseline is a very useful starting point. In our example we have a reference line that parallels the road. This may be the equivalent to a Right of Way line or property line. There is also another reference line perpendicular to the road. The Pad and the Lot are based on Partial Offsets of this line. We will also use it as a reference for our draping surface. 25

26 1. Click the Horizontal Single Offset Entire Element tool. We will not used a keyed-in Offset and there is no need to Mirror 2. Clear the dialog Offset check box and the Mirror check box on the dialog (or Press the <End> key at the Heads-up Prompt) 26

27 We will place the East limit first. We will make this coincident with the edge of the yard to make it easier to create the Vertical Geometry. 3. Set the Feature Definition to Linear > Grading > Grade_Temporary. 4. Type a Name of East Drape. 5. Select the perpendicular Reference Line that is pink in color. 6. Snap to the West side of the yard and data point to identify the location. 7. Mirror should be set to No, so data point to accept. 8. You should get a new construction line parallel to the reference line at the yard edge. 27

28 Create West Side of Lot Now let us place the west edge of the draping surface. We can use the Reference line or the newly-placed line as the reference. 1. The Feature Definition can remain Linear > Grading > Grade_Temporary. 2. Type a Name of West Drape. 3. Select the newly-placed draping edge as the Locate Element. 4. Place the offset to the west of the Lot. As long as it is outside the limits of the parking lot elements, the position is not critical. (maybe around -250 [-80m]) 5. Mirror should be set to No 6. We now have the limits of the draping surface. 28

29 Drape the East edge to the Building Pad Terrain and Slope 2% down to the West edge Create Vertical Geometry (Profiles) for the Draping Elements Now that we have the horizontal geometry for the draping surface, we need to execute our vertical engineering. We will drape the eastern edge near the building pad to match the yard elevation. We will use the Profile from Surface tool for this. We want the lot to drain at 2% to the left, so we will use Profile by Slope from Element for this. Remember to keep an eye on the 3D Model to verify the results. 1. In the Vertical Geometry task, click on Profile From Surface. Because the drape element extends beyond the limits of the yard we cannot use All, Ends, or Verticals for the Point Selection. The Centroid of the drape element lies within the limit of the Pad terrain, so we can use Centroid. 2. To Locate First Element to Profile we will identify the East Drape and right-click to continue. 3. When prompted for Reference Surface, make sure you select the Building Pad terrain model (click on a contour, for example). You do NOT want to drape the element to the Active Surface, which is the Existing_Terrain. 4. For the east edge, the table lists the relevant tool settings: Point Selection Centroid Profile Adjustment None (any option will work since we re using Centroid) Horizontal Offset 0 Vertical Offset 0 Range Name Element Template Full Length (Lock to Start, Lock to End) East Drape Profile Linear\Grade_Draping 29

30 5. In the Element Information dialog, set the new Profile as Active: 6. Verify the 3D edge in the 3D Model. 7. In the Vertical Geometry Task, select Profile by Slope From Element: 8. The Element to Profile will be the West Drape Element. The Reference Element will be the East Drape Element. 30

31 9. The settings: Point Selection Centroid Profile Adjustment None (any option will work since we re using Centroid) Vertical Offset 0 Slope 2% Range Full Length (Lock to Start, Lock to End) Name West Drape Profile Element Template Linear\Grade_Draping This tool sets the new profile as active, so the 3D element is automatically created: 31

32 Create the Draping Terrain 1. Select both draping elements. 2. Click Create from Elements under the Terrain Model tools. 3. Here are the relevant tool settings for creating the terrain: Feature Type Edge Method Feature Definition Name Break Line None Draft_Draping Lot Draping 32

33 Note that changing the profiles of either of the elements will change the terrain definition. Let s assume that we wanted to have the west end have a 0.5% slope along it. Creating a Profile Line at 0.5% in its profile model and setting it active would automatically warp the terrain, while retaining all the design intent, like automatically adjusting if the Pad elevation changes. Notice the warp: 33

34 Draping the Lot Elements Now that we have a draping terrain for the parking lot, it is time to drape the Parking Lot Elements. 1. Turn off the contours by selecting a contour in graphics, hover over it, select the Properties icon from the Context Toolbar, and Set Contours to Off. Once we have verified that the draping surface is properly designed, we longer need to see its contours. 2. Click Quick Profile From Surface. This streamlining of the Profile From Surface tool assumes a zero offset off all points along the selected terrain, which is exactly what we want for our parking lot edge. 3. Set the Name to Lot Profile and leave the Element Template set to None. 4. Select the Lot outline as the Reference Element. 5. Select the Draping surface boundary as the Reference Surface. Does the 3D element show up in the 3D model? 6. Set the new Profile as Active (hint: we performed this earlier: use the Element Information dialog to select the Profile and right-click). 34

35 Make a Terrain Model from the Lot 1. Under the Terrain Model tools click Create from Elements 2. Select the Lot element and right-click to continue through the tool settings. 3. Set the Feature Type to Boundary. 4. Set Edge Method to None. 5. Set the Feature Definition to Design_Contours. 6. Type Parking Lot for Name. 35

36 Grading the Lot Elements to the Existing Ground Now that we have 3D Lot Elements, we can grade them to the Existing_Terrain model. 1. In the 3D Geometry task, select Apply Linear Template 2. Set the Design Stage to 3 Final Top Mesh. 3. Confirm the template when prompted.the Simple Tie Slope Template is acceptable for tying into the ground. Note that the library s Curb and Sidewalk templates could also be used if desired. 4. At the Locate Element to Apply Template prompt, select the Lot graphic. 5. Lock the Start and Stop positions to the ends via the <Alt> key. 6. Mirror should be off and the Exterior Corner Sweep Angle is At the Select Side prompt, place a data point outside the lot so that the slope ties into the ground outside the shape. 36

37 Exercise 3 - Sidewalk and Driveway Linear Templates that use Target Aliasing Description This exercise set teaches how to design profiles and grade linear pavements, such as sidewalks and driveways. Skills Taught/Reinforced View Profile Models of the 2D Elements Project Intersecting Tie-in Points to the Profile. Create Profile Geometry Create Terrains for Pavements Grade to Ground 37

38 Sidewalk We have a simple sidewalk between two 3D shapes. We will create simple profiles between the 3D edges, make it a slab, and then grade it to the ground. Locate where the Pad and the Lot intersect the Sidewalk 1. Open a Profile Model of the top Sidewalk element in any view. 38

39 2. Click Vertical Geometry s Profile Intersection Point 3. At the Locate Element to Show Intersection prompt, select the top Sidewalk line. 4. At the Locate Element which Intersects prompt, select the Pad. 5. At the Locate Element for Next Intersection - Reset To Complete prompt, select the Lot. 6. At the Locate Element for Next Intersection - Reset To Complete prompt, click Reset. These steps generate two points in the profile which represent the Yard and Lot edges. 39

40 Create Sidewalk Profiles between the Pad and Lot 1. Select Vertical Geometry Profile Line Between Points. 2. Type in a Feature Name of Sidewalk Profile. 3. Snap to the left point. 4. Snap to the right point 5. Switch to the Element Selection tool. 6. Select the just-place profile line, hover, and from the Context Menu, click Set As Active Profile. 7. Confirm that the 3D element shows in the 3D Model. Note that if the horizontal or vertical location of the Yard or the Lot change, the OpenRoads technology honors the snap: the sidewalk remains attached. 8. Repeat the same steps for the lower sidewalk. Creating a profile for the other sidewalk element can be done in the same view. 9. Close the View that contains the profile. 40

41 Create a Terrain for the Sidewalk 1. Select the two sidewalk elements. 2. Click the Terrain Model tool Create from Elements. 3. Set the Feature Type to Break Line and leave the Edge Method as None. 4. Set the Feature Definition to Design_Contours. The image below shows the contour interval edited to be 1 for major and 0.5 minor. 5. Type Sidewalk for Name. 41

42 Grade the Sidewalk To the Ground 1. In the 3D Geometry task, select Apply Linear Template. 2. Click on the line that represents the side of the Sidewalk. 3. Set the Design Stage to 3 Final Top Mesh. 4. Change the template when prompted to End Conditions > Combined > Cut and Fill Slope Table Lock the Start and Stop positions to the ends via the <Alt> key. 6. Make sure you place a data button to the outside of the sidewalk. 7. Repeat for the other sidewalk line with placement on the outside of the sidewalk as well. 42

43 Cleaning up the Sidewalk Grading The Linear Template outside the sidewalk edges currently tie into the Existing Terrain. The problem here is that the sidewalk should tie into the Pad and Lot side slopes first. The method of sequencing the preferred target solutions is known as Target Aliasing. Our next step is to set the Target Aliasing for the two sidewalk Linear Templates. 43

44 1. Select the handles of the top sidewalk Linear Template, as shown: 2. In the Context Menu under the Tools (hammer icon) pull-down has a Target icon. Click it. This opens the Target Aliasing dialog, which lists the Targets Available to supplement an End Condition s default Target. Simply move the relevant targets from the left column to the right. Control buttons in the middle allow re-sequencing of the targets. Terrain Models, Corridors, and Linear Templates are all valid target types for Target Aliasing. Since the sidewalk will be built last, we will want it to intercept any of the objects between it and the Existing Terrain. 44

45 3. Move the following targets to the Aliases list. Since there is no spatial overlap between the proposed targets, their sequence is flexible. The Existing Terrain Model should be last, though: Corridor - Linear Template: Lot Corridor - Linear Template: Yard Terrain Model - Building Pad Terrain Model - Exist_Terrain 4. Click OK to dismiss the form and reprocess the linear template. 5. Repeat the process for the lower sidewalk edge. The sidewalk should grade properly now. 45

46 Driveway Grading the Driveway is almost identical to grading the Sidewalk. The difference is in how the curb returns are graded. The Quick Profile Transition tool creates parabolic or linear transitions from the profiles of the elements they are connected to. Create Profiles for the Linear Sides of the Driveway 1. Open a Profile Model of the left straight driveway element We need to find where the Lot and the Road Edge of Pavement intersect the driveway. 46

47 2. Click Vertical Geometry s Profile Intersection Point 3. At the Locate Element to Show Intersection prompt, select the left straight driveway element. 4. At the Locate Element which Intersects prompt, select the Lot edge. 5. At the Locate Element for Next Intersection - Reset To Complete prompt, select the Road Edge of Pavement. 6. At the Locate Element for Next Intersection - Reset To Complete prompt, click Reset. These steps generate two points in the profile which represent the Road and Lot edges. 47

48 Create Driveway Profiles 1. Select Vertical Geometry Profile Line Between Points. 2. Type in a name of Driveway Profile. 3. Snap to the left point (the Lot) and then to the right point (the LT_EOP of the road). 48

49 4. Set the Profile as Active. 5. Repeat the steps for the other side of the Driveway. Notice that the 3D elements do extend beyond the start of the fillets. Note: depending on your Workspace settings, the driveway symbology in Profile and 3D views may be very faint. This can be remedied by changing the individual elements Element Template settings to something more bold. 6. Close the view containing the Profile. 49

50 Profile the Fillets 1. Click on Quick Profile Transition 2. Use the Parabolic method. 3. Click on the Driveway Fillet lines to create Profiles for each fillet. 4. If the 3D Fillets do not show up in the 3D Model, then make the new Profiles Active. 50

51 Create a Terrain for the Driveway 1. Select the four driveway elements as well as a fifth element that was already in the DGN under the Edge of Pavement. The fifth element is has a Feature Name of RdDWF4. 2. With the 5 elements selected, Click Terrain Create from Elements. 3. Set the Feature Type to Boundary. 4. Type Driveway for Name. 5. Leave the Edge Method set to None and Feature Definition set to Design Contours. 51

52 Grade the Driveway to the Ground 1. In the 3D Geometry task, select Apply Linear Template 2. Set the Design Stage to 3 Final Top Mesh. 3. Select the Simple Tie Slope template in the Components > Parking Lot / Building Pad > Edge Treatment folder 4. Apply the template to one of the four driveway elements. 5. Lock the Start and Stop positions to the ends via the <Alt> key. 6. Make sure you place a data button to the outside of the driveway. 7. Leave the Exterior Corner Sweep Angle set to 5 degrees. 8. Repeat for the other three driveway elements. 52

53 Clean up the Driveway Grading Each driveway side slope needs to target one proposed linear template before intercepting the ground. (See the Sidewalk Cleanup steps) 1. Select each Driveway linear template and add the appropriate intersecting proposed linear template to its Target Aliasing list. Linear Templates on the Driveway closest to the Parking Lot should target the Lot Linear Template before Exist_Terrain. Linear Templates on the Driveway closest to the Road should target the East West Road Linear Template before Exist_Terrain. 53
