MX Roads SS4 Interchange Design.

Question

Can anyone kindly suggest any video/t ext material/ hands-on on interchange design (2D and 3D modelling), alongwith Ramp/gore design. The avialable leraning material in Bentley Learn server contains only 2D modelling of ramp.

There is nothing special about an interchange as compared to a simple junction, other than the fact there are more connections. Create your master strings horizontally and vertically, and then create/edit the other strings required. 
 There is an input file in the "C:\Program Files (x86)\Bentley\MX V8i (SELECTSeries 4)\MX\MFW\xx_tut" folder called 'thor105.inp'. Create a new MX project in a new folder, using IMPERIAL units, and input this file. It will create a trumpet shaped interchange, with a set of drawings.You can use this as an example 'training' dataset You will need to analyse the input file to understand the steps taken. 
 NOTE:This was a testing file from a long time ago, and has not been updated. If you have any issues, you will have to edit the file to correct them - it is not supported.
