Tin triangulating incorrectly - corridor modeler

Emily Bauder — Wed, 11 May 2016 21:00:48 GMT

I am working on our final model for the dtm, finished grade tin, and top of dirt tin in Geopak SS2 Roadway Designer. I recently had to create additional templates to aid in the top of dirt surface creation. In doing so, somehow now my top of surface tin is not triangulating correctly for the sidewalks in a few templates. I can’t seem to figure out what is causing this problem. This corridor now has over 20 templates and this is occurring in 7 of them. My recent changes to the corridor were primarily new templates to remove parametric constraints that made components go to zero (since the top of dirt alternate surface triangulated to those zero width components) and also merging points that were sitting on top of each other.

Anyone have any ideas what could be wrong?

Draw Ancillary Features multiple cells

Emily Bauder — Tue, 26 May 2015 13:09:51 GMT

I am using the Draw Ancillary Features tool to draw existing utilities into my cross sections. I'm referencing a mapping file and using level symbology as the the search mechanism. Most of the cells are coming in correctly, although on some cross sections cells are drawn where there is no utility crossing the pattern line. For example in the x-sec below, you see the 4 green circular symbols on the left side of the x-sec and there should only be 2 cells drawn for sanitary sewer crossings in this x-sec. The linework in my mapping file is a mix between survey chains, DDB features, and linestrings.

Geopak- Draw Ancillary Features crashes

jrueda — Fri, 18 Apr 2014 14:25:52 GMT

When plotting ancillary features on cross sections, my Microstation session crashes for miscellaneous reasons. Here are a couple of examples:

Loading a .afd file
Deleting an existing entry
In the display settings, changing the selection from "text" to "cell"

Has anybody had this issue and have an idea of how to fix it? It is quite annoying.

Thanks,
