Offset Staking – Screen Two
The second Offset Staking screen is used to define the
cross section of the road that you want to offset stake.
1/2 Road Width : is the L eft and R ight width of the road,
respectively, from the centerline to the edge of payment.
(See diagram below.)
X-Slope (%) : is the L eft and R ight slope of the road,
respectively, from the centerline to the edge of payment.
Note: A negative slope will result in water running from
the centerline toward the edge of payment.
; Stake Curb / Ditch : When checked, a curb or ditch and
an offset can be defined beyond the edge of the
pavement.

: when staking a curb / ditch,
this button allows you to select the shape of the curb, ditch, or slope
beyond the edge of pavement so cut / fill information can be computed
on this surface if a random offset is specified. The selected shape is
displayed by an icon next to the button, as well as with a bold line in
the road’s cross-sectional profile at the bottom of the screen.
Note: The selected Shape is irrelevant if a random offset is not
specified since the nodes are always in the same place for each shape
that uses the same
Height and Offset values.
Height : is the height of the curb, ditch, or slope in feet or meters. A
positive value is considered a curb and a negative value a ditch.
Offset From Edge of Road : is the distance that the curb or ditch
extends from the edge of pavement.
Note: The specified curb or ditch height and offset will be applied to
both sides of the road.
