Road lanes and widths are displayed<br />

in table form and are saved as <strong>Civil</strong> <strong>3D</strong><br />

assembly objects in order to properly<br />

generate and display cross sections<br />

and a <strong>3D</strong> corridor of the road.<br />

CGS <strong>Extensions</strong> <strong>2009</strong> includes new<br />

commands to create or edit lane<br />

widening. Widening can be used to<br />

open a new lane for slow vehicles and<br />

to create additional lanes crossroads.<br />

Widening can be anchored to a<br />

specific station (chainage) or it can be<br />

anchored to a specific point in a<br />

drawing. The advantage of this<br />

anchoring method is that any<br />

widening will remain in the same<br />

position when axis elements are<br />

edited. Various combinations of<br />

widening elements (arc-arc, parabolaparabola,<br />

arc-line-arc, arc-lineparabola,<br />

…) and parameters (speed,<br />

length, first and second R) are<br />

possible. All widenings are updated<br />

automatically when you edit<br />

alignments or polylines to which<br />

widenings are attached.<br />

Bus stops can be drawn either in<br />

tangents or curves. Even if they are<br />

drawn in curves they are constructed<br />

out of straight lines and arcs. The user<br />

can choose from a set of predefined<br />

bus types or can add a new bus<br />

definition. All values are stored in an<br />

XML file. Bus stops can be anchored<br />

to a specific station (chainage) or can<br />

be anchored to specific points in the<br />

drawing. A bus stop will also move<br />

dynamically with its corresponding<br />

element.<br />

Supported languages:<br />

Cross-falls /<br />

superelevations<br />

As with the calculation of widenings,<br />

cross-falls will also be calculated in<br />

accordance with national design<br />

standards.<br />

This extension not only brings the<br />

ability to calculate cross-falls for<br />

different road categories and for each<br />

lane, but also offers tools to easily<br />

modify cross-falls in specific crosssections.<br />

The calculation of cross-falls may be<br />

very complex. Results are displayed in<br />

table form and saved as<br />
