Introduction
- Demonstration
of software + sample outputs.
Preliminaries
- Review of
Digital Terrain Models.
- Land Desktop
commands for Horizontal Curves +
Spirals.
- Defining and
editing Horizontal Alignments.
Basic Road Design
- Creating
Typical Section templates for
Rural Roads / Urban Roads / Kerb
Returns etc.
- Designing and
editing the Vertical alignment +
setting Parameters for cut and
fill batters Subsoil Stripping
etc.
- Volume
Calculations / Reports for Cross
sections, Vertical Curves,
Strings etc.
Plotting /SetOut (no DXF!)
- Plotting
cross sections / Long Sections -
Plotting Contours / String-lines
on Plan View.
- Labelling
Strings with Chainages / Level /
Point number at various spacings
(fractional, equal, chainage)
- Generating
set-out tables and COGO points
based on Chainage & Offset /
Radial and Point Co-ordinate
methods.
- As part of
the standard course, we alter
the basic road design at this
stage to illustrate how easy it
is to regenerate all section and
plan views.

Complex Road Design
- Designing
Kerb returns and Cul-de-Sacs.
- Using the
interactive tools to generate
contours dynamically while
editing the vertical grading on
Kerb Returns / Cul-de-Sacs.
- Using Multi
String Design for Bus Bay
Widening and Road
Reconstruction.
- Advanced Road
Design also has specific
Roundabout Design Tools, which
are covered in a specific
Complex Road Design course. This
also goes into more detail on
re-construction (Design
Constraints, matching levels by
grade/offset etc).
DRAINAGE (Based on Australian
Rainfall & Runoff (AR&R))
- Setting the
drainage parameters – rainfall
and runoff / intensities,
libraries of Pipes + Pits and
adding new elements if
necessary.
- Defining
Catchments and Catchment Types.
Defining the drainage Network
and connecting the pits to the
catchment areas.
- Specifying
the Downstream pit and
calculating the levels and
diameters for the Pipe network.
- Editing
parameters and levels in the
grading design window.
- Plotting the
finished design in Long Section
and Plan as well as the HGL
calculations.
