Stake Out Alignments
second segment is 11 m from the centerline. Distance
of 0 is also a valid value.
Time to look at our progress. Tap the “
Preview
” but-
ton. Now, besides the new sidelines and design
points displayed near centerline in the main panel,
the Cross-Section panel also shows data (as in Verti-
cal Alignment panel, it is scaled unevenly for best fit)
(Figure 37). When cursor in main panel is within the
cross-section, the Cross-Section panel also has cursor
with coordinates.
Note two important things: 1. As we now have
cross-sections defined, elevation outside the sidelines
is not calculated (cursor in main panel displays the “--
-” in place of elevation). 2. Elevation displayed next to
cursor in main panel is a sum of elevation along cen-
terline, displayed next to cursor in the Vertical Align-
ment panel, and relative elevation across centerline,
displayed next to cursor in the Cross-Section panel.

We will define right side a bit later, and now set up the
narrowing. It is denoted by cross-sections equal to ini-
tial one at stations 4+10 and 4+80, and cross-sections
with degenerate outer segment at stations 4+30 and
4+60.
So, tap “ New Cross-Section ” (screen switches to edit-
ing the created entry). Set “
Station
” to 4+10. Tap “
New
Cross-Section
” once more. Set “
Station
” to 4+80.
To create two inner cross-sections, tap “
New
Cross-Section
” once again. Set “
Station
” to 4+30 (po-
sition of the entry in the list changes to “ 3/4 ” as the en-
tries are sorted by station value, as it was mentioned
before). Set “
Distance
” field for the second segment
to 0. Tap the “ Copy ” ( ) button to create copy of the
current (not last) entry. Change “ Station ” to 4+60.
Tap “ Preview ” and see that the left side of the align-
ment is complete (Figure 38).
