An Experiment in E-commerce


Hi All-

As many of you know, I enjoy writing documentation and helping spread the good cheer when it comes to Civil 3D. I've written a document for an introduction to interesection design and want to share it. However, I put a lot of personal time and effort into it - therefore I am going to try a little experiment. Are people willing to spend money on the information I give them? We'll see...



Civil 3D 2009 Intersection Design 101 - $5.99USD (Quite a bargain for the folks using Euros!)

This document is intended for people who already have built Civil 3D corridors and want to take their knowledge to the next level. Concepts also apply to Civil 3D 2008. This 18-page PDF document will introduce you to the basic concepts behind interestion design.

To get the most out of this paper:


  • You have a basic understanding of corridor design.

  • You understand how to create and modify both Alignments and Profiles.

  • You understand how to build assemblies.

  • You can perform some minor style modifications.

In this example we will create a very basic intersection:



  • Aspen Lane and Maple Road have same cross section.

  • Both streets maintain crown through the intersection.

  • The streets are perpendicular to each other.

  • The radii of the curbs are equal.
