I am just posting the dialog that we had via email here (in a general sense) for the benefit of others that may have similar types of work that could use the same work flow. I will be posting the video on here shortly (once it finishes compiling).
Here are my Process Steps that I used to create the Cross Section Drawings that I show below here
1) I created a Design Back of wall face - I had to offset the toe of the wall by 0.01' so the wall back was not vertical
2) I created a polyline along the Back of wall alignment and then offset that polyline 25' to the Right to give me a baseline for the Radial Surface
3) I added 50' Fillet Radii to the two PIs on the horizontal because the Radial Surface needs a curvilinear alignment with tangential segment end points - I set the vertical to Elevation 720 for the entire length - this is not that critical
4) I created a radial Surface of all the Point Cloud Data using a Vertical Offset of 6' (assumed instrument height) and an approximate Radius of 30' - this is just used to compute the triangulation of the radial surface (uses a Tunnel type technique) - Note when creating a Radial Surface I typically create the surface without adding data (especially point cloud data), and then edit the settings for the Approximate Radius and the Edge Length of triangles (30' and 10' in this case, and set the Unwrap From Top property to Yes. Once I have the properties as I need them I add the Point Cloud to the surface model using Add / Remove Surface Members.
5) I created a Corridor and referenced the Wall Design as a Reference Surface and added the Radial Surface as a surface instruction - the corridor uses my 25' offset alignment
6) To get the piles to show up in each cross section I had to generate a surface for each pile - in some cases I had to generate two surfaces because the Piles kink in the middle - so I broke the piles at the kink points and made a Top and Bottom surface (called Pile X - Surface 1a and 1b etc.). To create the pile surfaces I copied and then moved the copy of each pile up and down station by 1' maintaining the offset of the base of the pile - then added the three pile lines to a surface
7) I added all the Pile surfaces to my corridor as Reference surfaces so I can plot them in the cross sections. The cross section slices the Pile Surfaces which gives me a Projected section of the pile face at each cross section. I did not do all the piles at each location but I did most of them.
8) I then imported my Big Sheet Drafting Template (posted previously on the forum here) and played with the settings to get the cross sections in a form that looked OK - I used a fractional Vertical exaggeration (e.g. 0.5) to expand the horizontal separation of the different surfaces - you can see the settings I used in the Edit Cross Sections (of the Plan Set).
9) I then Built the Plan Set Sheet to get the section drawings.
10) because the sections are computed from my 25' offset alignment 0- the stations were off so I edited the text of the sections to reflect the stations in your PDF file and also the Titles
11) I then exported the 4 sections to DWG file by selecting just the sections in the sheet view.
12)I then imported the sections into the Plan View of the Project. I then scaled them from 0,0 by 100 to make them larger
13) Finally I moved them into the position near the wall model in the Plan View so you can see them. The sections are fully editable - they are just linework now so you can draw on other things and label them up as you see fit - you may want to scale them to label them or measure and compute the real values by reversing out the scale and then drawing Text on the drawings.
14) once in the Plan View you can re-scale them using Scale XY in the Scale Command and get them to a 1:1 scale. Then you can use Dimension Labels etc to label up the offsets as per your diagrams you shared. Once dimensions have been applied, you can re-scale the sections to re-exaggerate the horizontal separation of the lines etc.
15) Once you have the drawings as you want them - you can lay them out on a Drawing Sheet using Dynaviews etc as you see fit, use Plot Box and Print or output them to a DWG or PDF File etc as needed.
I learnt a fair bit from this process - the process works and I get the result you were ;looking for, but this highlighted quite a few areas that we could improve, however I think this is repeatable and you can get out of this what you need. The Video tomorrow will give you a little more detail on each of the steps above.
Thanks for raising the question and sharing your information - I hope that this helps
Let me know if I can assist further in any way - great to meet you (at least virtually) and I look forward to helping you again in the future as needed.
Here is the Video (coming shortly - beak out the Popcorn!)
