Summary
Create layouts using alignments.
How to Run
[Layout Mode]
Ribbon Menu > [Base] Tab > [Layout] Group > Create-Edit
Explanation
Default Setting
Set starting coordinates, direction, length etc. of the layout.
[Select Layout]
New : Defines a new layout.
Existing Layout : Edits an existing layout.
[Classification]
ID : A number that is automatically generated.
Name : Sets the layout name.
[Location]
Geographic Coordinate ON : Applies the value entered in the geographic coordinate system.
Geographic Coordinate OFF : Applies the default value without the geographic coordinate system.
Origin Point (X) : Defines the X-coordinate of the layout’s origin.
Origin Point (Y) : Defines the Y-coordinate of the layout’s origin
Initial Angle : Sets the direction of the layout. (The entered angle is set to positive in the counter-clockwise direction.)
[Start Station]
Sets the station of the origin.[Import Layout]
Support for importing layout files from external layout programs.Select a compatible program.
Support SWs
RP(Road Projector)
RD(Road/Rail Designer)
HintCAD
EICAD
Select two files at once that are horizontal/vertical to match the file format.
[Grid Setting]
Sets the station interval of the alignment that is previewed in the layout.Main Scale : Sets the interval of the station.
Sub Division : Sets the number of divisions between the main station.

Coordinates need to be set first to apply the geographic coordinates. |
Horizontal Alignment Setting
By Length Method
This method creates the layout shape by entering the type and length of a curve.
Type : Selects the type of curve.
Arc : Enter the length and the R value to create a layout with an arc shape.
Straight : Enter the length to create a layout with a straight shape.
Clothoid : Enter the length, Rs and Re values to create a layout with a clothoid shape.
By XY Method
This method creates the layout shape by entering the IP and parameter values of a curve.
X/Y Coord. : Defines the x- and y-coordinates of the IP Point.
R : Defines the curve radius
A1/A2 : Defines the length of the spiral tangent to the curve.
By DWG Data Method
This method creates the layout shape by importing a DWG file.
[Import]
This feature imports the DWG drawing file.[Reverse Point]
Reverses the direction of the imported drawing.
Vertical Alignment Setting
By Pos. Method
This is a method of defining elevations to the layout thougout the length.
Type : Selects the type of curve.
Straight : Enter the station and elevation to create a straight profile.
Parabolic : Enter the station, elevation and curve length to create a parabolic profile.
Arc : Enter the station, elevation and arc radius to create an arc profile.
Segment Setting
Segment Setting
Set zones in the created layout.
Name : Sets the name of the zone.
Station : Sets the range of the zone.
Skew : Sets the skew values to use in the corresponding zone. The entered angle is set to positive in the counter-clockwise direction.
Label : Sets whether to display the label in Layout.
Info |
---|
Skew is applied when the Skew option is applied to the plane of the Curve Library or the Assembly Unit. |
Superelevation Setting
Superelevation Setting
Enter superelevation details to the created layout.
Station : Sets the station to apply superelevation.
Left Super Elevation : Enter the left superelevation details. The unit is a percentage.
Right Super Elevation : Enter the right superelevation details. The unit is a percentage.
Info |
---|
Superelevation is applied when the Assign setting is set to Deformed in the Assembly Unit. |
