Infraworks360 can be used to import and assess existing roads to understand the properties,
strengths and weaknesses of the current infrastructure. The following Infraworks360 Guide details
how to use features of Infraworks360 to conduct an assessment of existing road infrastructure.
Ensure that you have created the base model you wish to assess using the guidelines presented in
the Infraworks360 Guide Part 1: Introduction to Infraworks360.
3. After converting to a design road, greater details of road characteristic data can be obtained and
tabulated. For example, for the first section of Day Lane, ending at the intersection with
Strachan Street:
a. Length = 275.636m
b. Elevation range = 23.006 25.385
c. Grade range = 0.81% - 1.64%
4. Note that the ranges are the maximum and minimum, and to read off the chainage at which you
have maximum and minimum, you will need to look at the profile view by right-clicking and
selecting Show profile view (Figure 1.2).
a. The green line represents the existing terrain and the black line represents the proposed
road profile
3. Choose stopping sight distance and the lane you are interested in (you will have the option of
forward or backward representing the left and right lanes for the direction of increasing
chainage respectively) and then click analyse (See Figure 2.2)
4. The analysis will present a colour coded road segment: blue, yellow or red (most commonly
blue or yellow) indicating whether the stopping sight distance is satisfactory (blue) or
