Creating a surface from corridors
With our corridor models created, we can now learn how to properly apply horizontal and vertical values associated with them to generate a dynamically linked surface model. As with all other modeled objects we’ve created, it’s important to keep these links intact to minimize rework later on down the road and avoid the major risk of missing or overlooking a required update along the way.
If we go back to Modify | Design and select the Corridor tool again, we’ll bring up the Corridor Contextual ribbon once more. There, we’ll want to go to the Modify Corridor panel and select the Corridor Surfaces tool (refer to Figure 10.42):

Once selected, we’ll be prompted to select the corridor that we’d like to update. After selecting any of our corridor models, the Corridor Surfaces dialog box will appear. In the Surfaces...
