Creating Intersections

You can use the Autodesk Civil Design intersection commands to

easily clean up lines where road alignments cross. The intersection

commands automate the process of intersection creation, breaking

lines where necessary, and filleting curves. The following illustration

shows the intersection of two tangents.

Key Concepts

■

Use continuous line types when you are designing

alignments that will meet in intersections.

■

You can use AutoCAD commands like BREAK, TRIM, and

FILLET to create intersections if you do not want to use the

automated Intersection commands.

■

You can manually place points along the intersection

geometry using commands in the Points menu in order to

create stakeout reports.
