Multiple surface add to Profile

[ravi.venkatappaWB2M3]

Does anyone have a Dynamo program to add surface to the existing Profile?

Hi @ravi.venkatappaWB2M3, see if these help.

Create Surface Profiles for Multiple Alignments

For @Ernest.Villanueva. See original post here: Here’s an example of creating surface profiles for multiple alignments. This will require the Civil 3D Toolkit package. CreateSurfaceProfiles.dwg (802.4 KB) CreateSurfaceProfiles.dyn (39.9 KB) MultipleCorridors.xlsx (8.8 KB) [CreateSurfaceProfiles]

Create Design Profiles for Multiple Alignments

For @Ernest.Villanueva. See original post here. Here is an example of creating design profiles for multiple alignments. It will create a simple profile that matches the EG elevations at the start and end of the alignment, i.e. this is not a script for optimizing a vertical profile. It just reduces the effort of creating several profiles and requires manual modification afterwards to add PVIs, vertical curves, etc. as appropriate. Note that this will require the Civil 3D Toolkit package. Crea…

Dear @zachri.jensen thank you so much for your replay, and

Both Dynamo files are not working for me, can you please help me with the below-mentioned item.

1. I already have 100+ Existing Surface Profiles(in place), I just need to add the Proposed Grade surface to the same existing profile, Example, I already generated a surface profile, so if I add a new surface I can see in the profile both surfaces at a time.

Hi Ravi,

The second post above should help you out for design profile, you have to take a note there are nodes in toolkit - for adding a place holder of design profile or to add a design profile with a station and elevation values.

if the the intention is to create a design profile exactly following the EG surface then this post can help you, i will suggest it to be used on single profile first as a test and then run on all alignments and profiles. You should also need to check List Levels for this task.

Automatic points

Hi @danielmedeirosm6 and welcome to forum, If i understand correctly you have a alignment and existing surface in the profile view. the intention is to create a design profile exactly replicating the existing ground at 10m interval PVI points. If yes this will get you going… [image] This is just a quick way and can be refined based on a requirements.

Dear @shahid.shaikh_C3D thank you so much for your reply,

Unfortunately, this also does not match with my requirement, I am attaching an image, for more clarity

i have 2 surfaces( 1. Existing & 2, Proposed,
with 1st (Existing Surface) i already made profiles in civil 3d,
now i want to add 2nd(Proposed Surface) to all profiles which i already made.

@ravi.venkatappaWB2M3 what data you have to create a proposed surface ?

[ravi.venkatappaWB2M3]

@shahid.shaikh_C3D

The road department Gave me 2 surfaces,
1st is Road top links surface,
2nd is Road Bottom links surface

While I am preparing the Pressure network in Civil 3D i need to maintain 1m Constant depth also need to check when Pipe cross Roads it should not pass through Road Bottom layers(Which is Sub Base)

i am attaching an image, Red color line is Representing Road Bottom links surface.

Road Bottom links surface.

@ravi.venkatappaWB2M3 ok its clear now, what you have done so far ?

[ravi.venkatappaWB2M3]

@shahid.shaikh_C3D first of all i am new to Dynamo, still in the Beginner stage,

i went through the above given Dynamo program and modified it as much as I aware.

Add surface ti Profile.dyn (15.5 KB)

Hi
as an idea
You can check the height at each beginning and end of a pipe
with surface Road Bottom layers
If it is less than a meter, adjust the height of the pipe

Maybe this topic will help you

Create Design Profiles from Selected Polylines

Hi Team This Dynamo script streamlines the design process by automating the Generation of a Design Profile within Civil 3D. Initiated with Selected Polylines. The script creates an: Alignment, Profile View, and Surface Profile derived from the Existing Surface. Users can customize clearance from the surface for the Design Profile. Additionally, the script optimizes the Design Profile by eliminating unnecessary PVI’s with identical grades, resulting in a more efficient and refined repr…
