Hi,
I'm trying to add Horizontal Feature Constraint to linear template I applied to the model but with no success.
The idea is to fill the gap between the concrete ditch to the road.
In the template the top fill point is defined with Horizontal Feature Constraint and the Feature definition to look for (TL_End Cond Hinge) with range of (-10).
I've also defined the asphalt line with the TL_End Cond Hinge as External Reference
What could be the solution for this?
I'm using ORD2020 Release 3
Thank you!
I think you need to add the feature as a corridor reference.
Since you are using a linear template I assume it's an isolated area where you make manual adjustments. In that case you could also do this by using a point control.Point controls are easier to apply, but require a more manual approach, whereas your method is more suited to an automatic process.
I would suggest a different approach: Use an end condition looking for your tie in feature and your originating point. With an end condition, you can assign constrained components to display the cross section element you are after as well as transition pieces to go from the wall section to the fill slope section. These different solutions would be handled with display rules based on how the base end condition solves (offset distances, elevation differences, etc.) while adhering to any slope criteria you need to maintain for your design (looks to be 40% slope).
The method you are showing isn't going to tie into the edge of pavement vertically. You would need to add in a point control for vertical which would override your template constraint of 40%.
