Basic single Baseline Corridors require simple Civil 3D design control. Give me an A -a centerline Alignment. Give me a P – a centerline Profile. Give me another A - a full cross section Assembly. What’s that spell? Corridor.
Many basic Civil 3D Corridor web videos are kitten or puppy videos less the cuteness. They often seem to miss the point of the practical civil engineering design challenges…

By definition…Probably not. We human beings tend to not ask questions about what we believe we already know how to do. We rely too much on habit. We could call this the human autopilot. The autopilot works 95%+ of the time. Our brains spend a good deal of invisible time behind the scenes working on those building those structures…
