Building an Alignment
The Edit Alignments routine is used to create an alignment and is
explained in detail starting on Page 50. If you do not currently have
an alignment stored in Data Collector, either create a simple
alignment now that is at least 300 feet long, or follow the instructions
that start on Page 50 to create a new alignment that contains an
example of each possible horizontal or vertical section.
Putting the Road Together
The final step in creating a road that can be point staked or slope
staked is to use the Add/Edit Roads routine to combine the
template(s) with the alignment and define any widenings and super
elevations.
In this example, we will use only one template for the entire road. We
will use a widening to add a second lane to the right side of the road
and we will add four super elevation definitions to bank the left and
right side of a curve.
