Process Design Sections

This command will process design sections to calculate volumes and output surfaces. The main purpose is to process design sections that have been manually adjusted. One workflow is to use Process Road Design to generate design sections from a centerline, profile and template design. Next these design sections can be adjusted with Input-Edit Section File for special stations as needed. Then use Process Design Sections to run these modified sections.

The first dialog specifies the required input files of the centerline, existing surface and design sections. The optional output files for coordinates, mass diagram and superelevation diagram are set here.

The second dialog has the processing and output settings which are a subset of the settings from Process Road Design. Please see the Process Road Design section of this manual for a description of these settings.
