NOTE: If there is existing superelevation data, you receive a warning that existing data will be overwritten.

  • Click OK. The Superelevation Tabular Editor will now display the descriptions and values for each region.
NOTE: After calculating the superelevation, any changes to the alignment geometry e.g. adding, deleting, or moving a curve is reflected in the Superelevation Tabular Editor. However, changing the radius of a curve will cause the superelevation data to become out of date and will have to be recalculated.
