Create an Embankment with the Subassembly Composer
Create an Embankment with the Subassembly Composer
4/28/2020
A basic Subassembly Composer detailed step by step tutorial on how to create a basic Embankment PKT in the Civil 3D Subassembly Composer.
See the Procad Ireland YouTube Channel.
Comments
A well done basic Civil 3D Subassembly Composer tutorial in under 8 minutes.
This replicates a simple Assembly you could easily build with stock Civil 3D Tool Palette Subassembly parts, but covers the mechanics and details in the Composer well.
Maybe you want to add a Key to the structure or optional drainage to one side?
A caution - You probably always do want to try employ the stock Civil 3D Point, Link, and Shape Code names as much as possible to reduce the number of Code Set Style and other edits needed to employ any PKT.
Using familiar Civil 3D parameter names will also help Civil 3D users more easily employ the PKT.
Create a Cul-de-sac in a Corridor
Create a Cul-de-sac in a Corridor

Prosoft's Shawn Herring steps though a detailed step by step on how to create a Cul-de-sac with and inside a Corridor in Civil 3D.
See the Prosoft YouTube Channel.

Look Ma, no Connected Alignments, one simple Assembly, a couple of Alignments and Profiles to a Cul-de-sac in no time.
I would use DREF Alignments and Profiles in a real project, but you get the picture and the process.
What simple target would you change if there was a flowline between the sac the roadway?
Create Alignment and Profile from a Feature Line
Create Alignment and Profile from a Feature Line
04/25/2020
Jowenn Lua walks through a neat trick to employ a Quick Profile and LandXML tools to create an Alignment and Profile from a Feature Line (or 3D Polyline) in Civil 3D.
From the Autodesk AKN Civil 3D Screencasts

Can you say How to build better managed design control from Feature Lines from Corridor output?
Other LandXML import and export tricks allow us to get more things done in Civil 3D.
LandXML is definately useful for better and quicker Parcel management practice in Civil 3D.
Remove Best Fit segments from Alignments and Profiles is another handy example.
