I can move a vertex to adjust line location. I can add vertices by double clicking anywhere on the line. Incoming and outgoing slopes are shown. If I add a checkbox, it will hold that elevation. The profile box shows the elevation of the selected node. I will outline this in the video but it is worth drilling down here. In this image we see the polyline edit functions. Only after the model is built and the line is offset for back of curb do we sometimes notice an issue.Ĭarlson has helped with a visual representation of a polyline as you add elevations to spot issues before going too far. We can go through the plans and pay attention to called out elevations to correctly enter them into the right vertex. 3D LinesĮlevating curb lines is the most tedious and potentially problematic part of civil site data. 
While in the process of making contours, it is a good time to check and see if there are any additional line fragments under or maybe copied to the new layer.
Line type and the width of the lines can be changed.Ī tip I like to use is to re-layer the location of the elevated polylines and make that layer un-selectable in case you pick the line again so it does not get changed. The properties can be changed as well so you know what has been elevated. These tools are great for getting to the bottom of problems with detail areas in a model.Įlevating polylines can be done with the command shown. Highlight non-tangent, non-perpendicular, crossing, and unclosed polylines. An arc cannot be elevated so segments must be added for elevations to be added. Individual lines or layers can reduce or densify vertices. 
Direction can be reversed to help joining lines. It is easy to convert any line type to a polyline. The advantage of working in AutoCAD is the ease of changing and editing polylines to make the contours work well. The first will be 2D lines (contours) that will need some work later, but I want to see what we have to start with. Let’s review some ways to produce data components. With the unnecessary layers turned off, we are now ready to produce a file to send to the field. This process is critical not only for data, but the field controllers will either not display or even crash with other than polyline exports. Sometimes when you are elevating along curb, the line will break because it is next to a different type. The conversion of different linetypes into polylines will make things easier. Looks like it came from a couple xref plan lines that were stacked on each other when they exported everything to one file. The duplicate lines were extreme in this file. I will add line points back later, but at this stage I want a straight line to have no interruptions until I add them. I got a lot of help here with lines and verticies. Listed below are notes on Drawing Cleanup results: When completed I can get the layers stripped and create a layer state for building data. The following settings will work fine for this drawing. There are a lot of options for cleaning including bringing in CAD elements that may otherwise get lost in other platforms. Starting with Drawing Cleanup is where we’ll begin. You will need to get some things out of the way to create data. As I go through the steps, you will see some different approaches to the process that may help users with various situations. Before sending things out to the field, we need to make 2D and 3D lines as well as points. #DRAWING LINES WITH TRIMBLE SURVEY CONTROLLER CODE#
Use the Linework Code Set dialog box, as shown in figure 1, to specify coding methods and to edit special codes, line segment codes, and curve segment codes.Let’s get to the meat of the program and see how data is produced. Inserting a figure command into the point description during the survey data collection phase of a project automates the process of creating line work when the data is later imported into If your data collector does not support the use of a Linework Code Set, then a convention such as the figure command BEG is used to indicate the beginning of a figure line, such may be the case with some data collection conversion tools that do not support the Field to Finish features of For example, it is recommended that the linework command code come after the linework feature name, such as "OHW B", where OHW is the figure name, and B is the begin code defined in the Linework Code Set that will be used when the data is imported into During the field survey data collection, use the coding convention previously established in anĪutodesk Civil 3D Linework Code Set.
