Hi All, Hoping to have some advice on the following.
When i run through the prompts of calculating super elevation once this has completed, nothing seems to apply to my lanes, nor does anything appear in my super elevation editor or superelevation viewer
It seems to me as if something is not applying correctly here!
I have created a super elevation section (tried both by using corridor and alignment) Section seems to create fine,
Created lanes left and right (I have tried using both manual and template with no luck with calculation tool)
I have followed the Bentley training videos and subsequent you tube super elevation tutorial videos to an absolute tee with no luck with calculation tool.
I have tried different rule files including the training files, ANZ (Austroads, MRWA) with no luck with calculation tool.
I have also tried running the calculation tool once the super elevation has been applied within my Corridor file, saved this, then went back into my super elevation file and ran calculation tool - no luck.
I have referenced in Terrain, Geometry (Live Nesting 1) , Corridor (live nesting 1)
Nothing seems to work! any help would be greatly appreciated! Please feel free to clarify anything I may have not noted here!
Hi Chris,
It will not apply any super if you only have straight geometry and an additional thing is that the super editor dialog doesnt alway refresh on data import or initial calculation (you need to close ad reopen).

Hi Mark, thanks heaps for your reply, can I ask what you mean but just straight geometry ?
I have my geometry, corridor and terrain referenced in
Here is a snapshot of the centreline report - you do not have any geometry (as in straights/spirals/circular arcs). It is all straight segments, and therefore no superelevation can be calculated. I would hazard a guess this is a CAD element that was turned into a Civil feature.
Hi Mark, are you referring to the horizontal geometry or vertical active profile attached to the horizontal geometry? Does this need to be complex geometry?
Horizontal geometry. You need to know the radius of a curve to be able to calculate the required superelevation. You have no curves - therefore no superelevation. Your data is not suitable for this exercise.
No you don't - you have a series of straights that approximate a curve. There are no geometric curves in the horizontal alignment - see the snapshot of the report I posted in an earlier answer. there is nothing but 'HPI' points.
Annotate the alignment with an Annotation Group that gives curve details - you will not get any curve annotation with your alignment as there are no curves.
