Hi!
I have the topo details & proposed Centerline in an AutoCAD file. I have attached this CAD file as reference & prepared the terrain model. To proceed with horizontal alignment design is there a way to convert the proposed centerline( already available in CAD whihc i have referenced for preparing terrain model) into alignment, in open roads or do I have to recreate the CL separately?
Thanks in Advance!
Copy the ACAD centreline into a 2D model in ORD, and use 'Create Civil Rule Feature' to generate the ORD geometry.
(If it is a centreline created by Civil3D, it would probably be better to export to LandXML or ifcAlignment from C3D, and then import.)

Thanks for the suggestion. In a new 2D model the alignment line is taken up as read-only. Could you suggest how do I unlock this & proceed?
Thanks!
Is the alignment from CAD a 3D Polyline if so use Plan by 3D element

Copy it from the reference file to the working file would be my simple solution.
Try right clicking the reference file > Merge to Master
