- What is a vertical alignment in tcpMDT and what files does it generate?It is defined as a set of vertical alignments that make up the final design of a road, involving distances from the origin and absolute…
- What types of vertical curves do vertical alignments support in tcpMDT?In TcpMDT, vertical alignments mainly support two types of vertical curves to connect their elements: parabolic and circular. The…
- How does "Automatic Grade" work?The Automatic Grade function in TcpMDT is a tool designed to assist in defining a grade so that it fits a longitudinal profile following…
- Is it possible to interactively edit the parabolic curves of the grade line vertices?Yes, it is possible to interactively edit the parabolic curves of the vertices of a grade line in TcpMDT through various specific tools…
- Can I generate a report comparing two vertical alignments?Yes, it is possible to generate a comparative report between two vertical alignments using the specific command Compare Vertical…
- I have a series of Station Points (P.K.) for which I want to calculate the vertical alignment elevation. Is there a tool that provides this information?Yes, TcpMDT has several tools specifically designed to obtain the elevation of a vertical alignment from a specific Station Point (P.K.)…
- Can I draw a vertical alignment file already defined on the plan of my mapping?Yes, it is perfectly possible to draw an already defined vertical alignment directly on the plan of your mapping using the specific…
- How can I create a grade line from a longitudinal profile?There are several methods to create a grade line using a longitudinal profile previously drawn in the CAD as a reference. For most of…
- If I have the longitudinal profile and the vertical alignment, how can I display both in elevation simultaneously?To simultaneously display the longitudinal profile (terrain) and the vertical alignment in elevation, the main tool in TcpMDT is the Block…
