Tutorial: Viewing and Rendering a Corridor

This tutorial demonstrates how to add surfaces to a corridor, create boundaries
on the surfaces, and then visualize the corridor using the AutoCAD rendering
tools.
For more information, see the AutoCAD Civil 3D Help topic Managing and
Editing Corridors.

Exercise 1: Creating Corridor Surfaces

In this exercise, you will create Top, Datum, Pave, and Median surfaces from
the corridor.
The Top surface tracks the finish grade of the roadway from the left daylight
point to the right daylight point on both paved and unpaved portions. This
surface is used for finish grade modeling.
The Datum surface tracks the finish grade on unpaved portions, and also the
subbase on paved portions, going from the left daylight point to the right
daylight point. This surface represents the grading elevations before pavement
materials are applied. This surface is used for calculating cut and fill quantities.
The Pave surface defines the finished pavement on both travel lanes in the
divided highway.
Go To Next Station to view the grade at subsequent stations.
