Rural road is a road network with a low volume


traffic and low design speed which provides market access to
farms, employment and connects different communities.
Rural roads are classified into other district road (ODR) and Figure 1 – Satellite image of selected area of the

5. TOTAL STATION

Total Station is a combination of Electromagnetic


Distance Measuring (EDM), Theodolite and Micro processor
used to measure horizontal angles, vertical angles and
sloping distances of the objects. It gives high accuracy, easy
to work and tasks can be completed in time. For each point
or station, codes are created and entered and surveying is
started at different stations. Northing, easting, elevation of
the ground co-ordinates were obtained along the proposed
alignment. These co-ordinates enroll for map making and
plotting contour and cross section in AutoCAD civil 3D. At
end of the work/ the details stored in the instrument is
downloaded to computer further used for AutoCAD civil 3D.

Figure 3 - Flow Chart of AutoCAD Civil 3D

Select the file of the survey points which is saved in


notepad or in excel sheet to import the points to AutoCAD
civil 3D. Create the surface for the existing ground surface,
create alignment for the profile and select criteria based
design, create corridor to run corridor in 3D view, develop
sample lines and assembly to create cross sections and to
generate volume report. All these can be viewed in object
viewer.

The below figures shows the design procedure;

6. AUTOCAD CIVIL 3D

Autocad civil 3D is a tedious process but after


several rehearsal it will be easy, needs a training, taken a lot
of practices to become fluent, and prepared to get this
technique right. Below flow chart shows the general review
of AutoCAD civil 3D design procedure.

7. OUTPUT OF THE DESIGN

Drawings are the results obtained for the proposed


road and simultaneously tabular column are generated
automatically with details.

Figure 7 - Cross sections of the road alignment We will get the formation level, cross sections, curve details
along with the information of depth of cut and fill
(Earthwork quantity) for the entire project stretch.

8. CONCLUSION

Consequence of this observations made,


investigations done, collection of traffic data, examination of
the existing study area helps us to align the road which is
feasible and sound in an effective way. By using total station
makes survey easier and possible to truncate the time for the
Figure 8 - Corridor creation field survey. It eradicates manual errors like reading and
recording co-ordinates. These co-ordinates enroll for map
making and plotting contour and cross section in AutoCAD
civil 3D. AutoCAD civil 3D helps to complete the design
process in a relaxed and comfortable way within time and
also it preserves lot of time and effort. This project
introduces a complete geometric design of the village road
using AutoCAD civil 3D.
