A Workflow for the Civil Designer tasked to create Pram Ramps and Driveways!
Here you will learn how to set up your Pram Ramp and Driveway Designs:
MTF Setup to tie into existing features on a brownfield site.
Apply MTF Manager is used along with the MTF seed file option to quickly generate the links and then further modifiers are used to match the existing site as required.
A quick look at the “Pram Ramp” snippet provided by 12d (perpendicular to the Reference string).
Create a Design Chain for the processing of the MTF options.
Creation of the temporary Computated strings and tin surface for the calculation of the Ramps or Driveways.
The “Computate Strings” option is demonstrated using both the Grid and Template method.
Additional changes are required to match back into our tie-in footpath strings and then we are ready to create a Chain combining all the Super Alignments and function to re-calculate the Ramp construction tin surface.
Look at the Ramp locations and what is required for the Function to calculate the positions correctly. Either a simple Super String or Computated SA string can be used as the location strings.
Completing the required Ramp settings, we apply the function and then finish the design off with some final MTF modifiers.
Set up the Chain and show how the whole process is now recalculate when required.
We do not provide a project.
Note that you will require a license of 12d Model V15 (including the ‘Alignment’ module) to reproduce the steps that are demonstrated.
