Attachment
The attachment point is at the inside edge of the first ink, This will be either the inner buffer or the
foreslope link of the ditch if the inner buffer width is zero. This is typically connected to the outside edge
of a shoulder.
Input Parameters
Note: All dimensions are in meters or feet unless otherwise noted. All slopes are in run-over-rise form
(for example, 4 : 1) unless indicated as a percent slope with a “%" sign,

Ditch inner Edge May be used to override the fixed width of the foresiope Optional
Alignment buffer. The following object types can be used as
targets for specifying this: alignments, polylines, feature
lines, or survey figures.
Ditch outer edge May be used to override the fixed width of the Optional
Alignment backslope buffer. The following object types can be
used as targets for specifying this: alignments,
polylines, feature lines, or survey figures.
Ditch Bottom Profle May be used to override the fixed foreslope and Optional
backslope widths. The following object types can be
used as targets for specifying this elevation: profiles,
3D polylines, feature lines, or survey figures.
Target Surface Surface used to determine if the ditch is in cut or fil. Optional
The following object types can be used as targets for
specifying this surface: surfaces.
Output Parameters
None.
Behavior
This subassembly will insert a simple ditch shape (either flat bottom or V-shaped ditch) with optional
foreslope and backslope buffers. The location of the inner ditch edge can be specified with a fixed
width, or with an optional alignment. The ditch depth can be specified with a fixed height, or a profile
can be assigned to control the depth. The Cut/Fill Test point is P3. Depending on the Include Ditch
input parameter, the ditch will only be placed in cut, fill, or both cut and fil.
Note:
In AutoCAD Civil 3D 2010 and previous versions, the Material Thickness parameter was measured
vertically. In AutoCAD Civil 3D 2011 and later, this parameter is measured perpendicular to the link.
Therefore, if you open a drawing containing these subassemblies that was created in AutoCAD Civil
3D 2010 or prior in AutoCAD Civil 3D 2011 or later, and then rebuild the corridor(s), this parameter will
be changed to reflect the new behavior. Any volume reports that use this subassembly will be updated
to reflect the new behavior.
Layout Mode Operation
In layout mode, this subassembly displays all of the links comprising the ditch with the parameters set
as input by the user.
Point, Link, and Shape Codes
The following table lists the point, link, and shape codes for this subassembly that have codes
assigned to them. Point, link, or shape codes for this subassembly that do not have codes assigned
are not included in this table.
