Novapoint Road Library

Use this function to draw elevation annotations along selected surfaces of the carriageway.

• These annotations can be drawn for the desired section of the road model.
• These annotations will be inserted at the interval used for road surface calculations.
• The elevations will be read from the active road project.
• The primary requirement for this function is that road surface calculations are performed in the module Road Design.

Run the from the following locations:

MOUS_ICO Toolbar: Draw Road Superelevation Annotations
MOUS_ICO Menu: Road > Draw Road Superelevation Annotations…

The dialog Draw Road Superelevation Annotations will pop up.

• The active road model will be mapped in this field.

• Select the carriageway surfaces, on which the superelevation symbols and annotations are to be drawn.
• All the carriageway surfaces available in the active road model will be listed in the pull-down menus.

• By default, superelevation annotations will be drawn to the entire road model section.
• In case, annotation is not required for the entire section, mark the radio button From and define the section at the fields From and To.

• Superelevation annotations can be inserted at the interval used for road surface calculations, breakpoint (tangent points of alignment, change points of road cross-section, etc.).
• Mark the checkboxes.
• Draw Chainages: The chainage at the superelevation annotation can also be inserted. Mark the check box to use this option.

Settings for the symbols of superelevation and annotation can be defined in the dialog Annotation Drawing Settings, which pop up with this button.

• Annotation size: Define the size of the symbol.
• Layer: Select the layer, on which the superelevation annotations are to be drawn.
  • The pull-down menu lists all the layers of the current drawing.
  • Select the layer from the pull-down menu.
  • A new layer cannot be defined.
  • To create a new layer, exit the function, create the new layer, and restart the function.
• Color: The desired color for annotations can be selected from the pull-down menu.
• Cross-slope value/Chainage text style: Select desired style for the text of cross-slope/chainage from the pull-down menu.
  • All the styles available in the current drawing will be listed in the pull-down menu.
