Summary
With that, although we have performed a bit of discovery as it relates to uncovering how big a part alignments play in our design, there are many additional components that we need to dynamically link to alignment geometry to truly appreciate and realize the value they bring to the table.
That said, although we have two foundational Civil 3D objects created, we need to continue progressing further to tie our third foundation Civil 3D object into the mix, which will really bring to light how critical these steps are at the beginning of our designs.
In our next chapter, we’ll begin exploring Profiles that will be referenced and tied to our first two foundational objects (Surfaces and Alignments). Once we’re able to form a dynamic link between all three of these foundational objects, we can begin exploring additional design and analysis tools that are not currently available to us.
