KERB EDITING

The Kerb Editor in Civil Designer's Roads Module allows you to incorporate kerbs in cross sections and to calculate kerb quantities. You can build up your own library of kerbs, or use the kerb library that is supplied with the program.
The tool defines and edits kerb geometry and formulae that will be used to calculate quantities as you work. The generation of kerbs on cross section plots can be completed in seconds.
