    I am trying to create a corridor with surfaces for gravel and asphalt. the asphalt worked just fine but when I go to tie the gravel in with the finished grade using the side slope command, It will not let me do a negative side slope to tie in. I've tried to enter in positive 2 and negative 2 and neither has worked, both result in a positive slope of 2%. At first, I thought this may be a bug in my computer, but we have tried using a couple of computers and no luck. As of right now the closest I can get to a -2 slope is a 0-degree slope. anyone having the same issue?

Louis,

Try this

Project Settings,

Computations,

Corridor,

and change "Honour sign of tie slope" to Yes

I have a slightly different approach,

Calculate the Subgrades down the batter face and then connect from the centreline (I don't why I'm doing this now but its the way I've gone and too far down the track to change this model)
