General Tools

General Tool group

Settings	Description
Import/Export	Allows to import or export geometry.
Design Elements	Allows you to set active profile.
Standards	Allows you to set design standards.
Civil Toggles	Allows you to toggle civil accudraw and civil rules option.
Reports	Allows you to get reports of the elements.
Civil Analysis	Civil Analysis group Analyze Point - Reports information about a user-specified point location in a TM (elevation, slope, contour, slope direction). Analyze Between Points - Reports information between 2 point locations on a TM (elevation difference, length and slope). Analyze Volume - Calculates volume between 2 TMs or a TM and plane (elevation). Capable of processing in an area (fence) or multiple areas and computing the volumes over a range of elevations. Cut and fill factors are also options. Inverse Points - Computes and displays the distance and direction between each pair of specified points. Analyze Trace Slope - Traces along a surface either following a user-specified slope value or the steepest slope. Can trace upstream or downstream. Analyze Pond - Analyzes terrain model for ponds (low point) located via a data point location on a TM (volume, area max depth). Element Component Quantities - Reporting tool that reports single or multiple Civil Cells and or Corridors to create component quantity summary. Create Cut Fill Volumes - Used to calculate cut and fill volumes between two surfaces, usually an existing a terrain and a surface (terrain or mesh) and create s a 3D mesh solid with volume attributes. Quantities Report by Named Boundary - Allows to report volumes for specific station ranges and/or sheet clipping boundaries. Mass Haul Diagram - Allows you a cumulative total of cut and fill volumes along a horizontal alignment. End Area Volumes Report - Allows you to calculate cut and fill using cross section named boundaries cut along a previously defined alignment. Cross Section Report - Allows you to report of the top, bottom, and intermediate layers of a roadway design along the cross section named boundaries. 3D Drive Through - Produces a quick drive through visualization along an alignment.

Superelevation

Superelevation group

Settings	Description
Create	Allows you to create a superelevation section for the specified station range on the baseline reference to demarcate a stretch of roadway for superelevation calculations.
Calculate	Allows you to compute the station and cross slopes of transitions.
Edit	Allows you to insert or edit superelevation.
Superelevation Report	Allows you to create a superelevation XML report of stations, transitions, cross slopes, and other super data and opens the Bentley Civil Report Browser.
Open Superelevation View	Allows you to open the editable superelevation diagram directly in a MSTN view.

Set Active	Allows you to set active terrain model.
Add Features	Adds more features into the terrain that was created using the create commands. Example, create the terrain from break lines, then add points.
Remove Features	Removes elements from a terrain which were added by Add Features or Create from Elements.
Edit Complex Terrain Model	Edits a complex terrain by changing the order of merging, change merge or append methods and add or remove component terrain models.
Change Feature Type	Allows you to update the existing features.
Edit Terrain Model	Edits a terrain model by changing the order of merging, change merge or append methods and add or remove component terrain models.
Add Terrain Model Boundary	Adds boundary to terrain model.
Remove Terrain Model Boundary	Removes boundary from terrain model.
