This subassembly is used to overlay one side of an existing road, and add one or more travel lanes to the edge going around a curb return.
It is similar to the OverlayWidenMatchSlope1 subassembly, except that it extends inwards from an existing or proposed curb flange point.
The attachment point is at the outside edge of the lane widening section. Typically this subassembly is inserted inwards from the flange of an existing or proposed curb and gutter, or from the outside edge of pavement around a curb return.
Note: All dimensions are in meters or feet unless otherwise noted. All slopes are in run-over-rise form (for example, 4 : 1) unless indicated as a percent slope with a “%” sign.
This section lists the parameters in this subassembly that can be mapped to one or more target objects, such as a surface, alignment, or profile object in a drawing. For more information, see in the AutoCAD Civil 3D User’s Guide Help.
The attachment point determines the offset and elevation of the outside edge of widening. The location of the inside edge of widening and inside edge of overlay are determined using the given widths and slope. Alignments can be used to override the given numeric widths. If the Overlay Profile is given, then the slope is calculated between the profile elevation at the inside edge of the overlay and the attachment point.
The following illustration shows a situation with an overlay offset profile. (If the Overlay Profile is given, then the slope is calculated between the profile elevation at the inside edge of the overlay and the attachment point.)
The following illustration shows a situation with no overlay offset profile.
It is important to note that slope from the left to right of this subassembly is the same. Also, the same slope is applied to all subsurfaces.
Finally, if overlay profile is attached, then we have to add vertical links (a) from “overly offset” to target (EG) surface, and (b) from end of overlay and beginning of widening to target (EG) surface, and (c) add links between two points along (tracing) target (EG) surface links.
The area formed by this shape is to be coded as “Overlay” (S1) below in the coding diagram.
The overlay is the area between the top of the overlay and the existing ground, and may be a non-uniform depth.
In layout mode this subassembly is attached to any convenient point. The subassembly is shown at the given widths and slope. In modeling mode, the shapes adjust to the actual conditions defined by the existing surface and Runtime Logical alignments and profile.
