WisDOT code set styles and their uses

Subassemblies are built from points, links, and shapes.

Styles are used to automate the display and labeling of the subassembly components used in the objects listed above.

Points

• Points define specific locations within the subassembly geometry.
• Styles for subassembly points are referred to as Marker Styles.
• Marker Styles are located under Toolspace > Settings tab > General > Multipurpose Styles > Marker Styles
• Used to define longitudinal corridor feature lines. Corridor feature lines are used to define WisDOT corridor surfaces.

Links

• Links are the linear connection between points in subassembly geometry.
• Link Styles are located under Toolspace > Settings tab > General > Multipurpose Styles > Link Styles

Shapes

• Shapes are made from three or more Links that define a closed area.
• Shape Styles are located under Toolspace > Settings tab > General > Multipurpose Styles > Shape Styles
• Shape Styles can be used to control the appears of shapes in Section View and Link - Material Area Fills in a Top View.
• Shapes may also be used to compute average end area for pavement material quantities and for extracting corridor solids.

Code Set Styles are a collection of subassembly component styles that control the appearance and labeling of items related to corridors.

Code Set Styles are located under Toolspace > Settings tab > General > Multipurpose Styles > Code Set Styles

Subassembly point codes can be assigned the following:

• marker style - what does the point look like
• label style - text information used to describe the point (name, offset, elevation, etc.)
• feature line styles - what the connecting linework looks like

• pay item

Subassembly link codes can be assigned the following:

• link style - what does the link look like
• label style - text information used to describe the link (name, grade, slope)
• render material - use for viewing link areas in 3D
• material area fill style - view shaded areas between links in Top view. Shape styles are assigned in this column.

• pay item

Subassembly shape codes can be assigned the following:

• shape style - what does the shape look like in section (not typically used in plan production)

• label style - text information used to describe the shape (not typically used in plan production)

For additional information on code set styles see Autodesk Civil 3D Help - To Work With Subassembly Code Set Styles

_No Display

• Displays the corridor feature lines and does not show points, links, or shapes.

Feature Lines

• Used to display corridor feature lines for the Top, Datum and Subgrade Improvement surfaces.

Feature Lines – Datum

• Used to display only corridor feature lines for the Datum surface.

Feature Lines – SGImp

• Used to display only corridor feature lines for the Subgrade Improvement surface.

Feature Lines – Top

• Used to display only corridor feature lines for the Top surface.

Model - Color by Link - Rendered

• This code set style is not stored in the reference templates. It can be added through WisDOT Design tab > Design panel > Corridor menu > Import Code Set Styles
• This code set is the same as Plan – Color by Top Materials but also includes render materials. AutoCAD render materials are included in this code set style for 3D viewing.
• The Visual Style will need to be switched from 2D Wireframe to Realistic to view rendered materials in a 3D view.
• If the render materials do not appear correctly in a 3D view, experiment with the Graphics Performance - Hardware Acceleration setting to see if it works better On or Off.

• Render materials may be purged from the drawing if the code set style is no longer needed. The code set will need to be deleted first in order to purge the materials.

Plan – Color by Link

• Each corridor link has a unique color based on the subassembly link codes and the Material Area Fill Style used in the code set style. The subassembly shapes are also assigned unique colors for display in section views. Turning the Lightweight Display > On may help with viewing the link colors in section views.

• This code set style is useful for developing a corridor design. It gives the designer direct feedback on subassembly behaviors and geometry. The link colors in section view match the shaded areas in plan view. For example, this code set can give the designer a better understanding of where cut and fill situations are occurring.

Plan – Color by Top Materials

• The top of roadway materials are based on the Link - Material Area Fill Styles in the code set style. Examples materials: concrete pavement, asphalt pavement, base aggregate, grass. This code set is not to be used to determine material quantities.

• This code set style is useful for viewing the corridor in a more realistic representation.

Section

• This a basic code set used for design. The colors and styles for the Links and Points are based on the surfaces they represent. Top, Base layers, Datum, Subgrade Improvement layers are displayed. A TopDatum style is applied to geometry between the subgrade shoulder point and the slope intercept where WisDOT Top and Datum refinement surfaces are coincident.

Section – Datum

• This a basic code set used for design. The colors and styles for the Links and Points are based on the surfaces they represent. The links representing the Corridor Datum surface is the focus in this code set.

Section – SGImp

• This a basic code set used for design. The colors and styles for the Links and Points are based on the surfaces they represent. The links representing the Corridor Subgrade Improvement surface is the focus in this code set.

Section – Top

• This a basic code set used for design. The colors and styles for the Links and Points are based on the surfaces they represent. The links representing the Corridor Top surface is the focus in this code set.

Section View For Label Set – Datum

• Used for creating design review section views. Displays standard slope and offset-elevation labels.

• This code set style is used with Corridor Point Label Sets. The code set provides the label locations and the label set displays the labels. The label style associated with the code set does not contain any text or leaders.

• The associated Corridor Label Set is found under the Toolspace Settings tab > Section > Label Styles > Label Sets > OffElev PointCode Staggered - Datum.

Section View For Label Set – Top

• Used for creating design review section views. Displays standard slope and offset-elevation labels.

• This code set style is used with Corridor Point Label Sets. The code set provides the label locations and the label set displays the labels. The label style associated with the code set does not contain any text or leaders.

• The associated Corridor Label Set is found under the Toolspace Settings tab > Section > Label Styles > Label Sets > OffElev PointCode Staggered - Top.

Standard

• Displays default corridor feature lines, links, and shapes.

Typical Section

• General code set for displaying links and slope labels that can be used to create a typical section from an assembly.

XS Sheets

• Used for creating WisDOT Cross Section Sheets. Displays standard slope and offset-elevation labels.
