Civil 3D Create point on Alignment at Defined Interval
In this video we are going to look at how to create points on Alignment at defined intervals. You can create points on Alignment at station increments like 5m,10m etc.
Further you can create points at an offset to the alignment too.
Select settings and create styles, layers, point groups, and description keys.
Home tab Create Ground Data panel Points menu Create Points - Alignments Measure Alignment .
Select an alignment.
Note: If the selected alignment has associated profiles, the Select a Profile dialog box is displayed. You can select a profile from the list and the elevations for the points you create will be set from that profile. If there is no profile section for a station on the alignment, or if you select (none), the point elevation will be set according to the Points Creation settings in the Create Points dialog box.
Enter the starting station or press Enter to accept the default.
Enter the ending station or press Enter to accept the default.
Enter the offset. If you have selected a profile, the offset value for the profile displays as the default.
Enter the interval.
Points are placed along the alignment at the specified offset and interval.
If prompted, for each point, enter a point name, description, and elevation.
Note: If you want the point description to be taken from the object, specify Automatic - Object in the Prompt For Descriptions section of the Points Creation settings. The alignment name and station display in the Raw Description column in the Point Editor.
