Ok does this look right? The 80's line remark? Od confused student?

[ConfusedStudent]

That's not how mine looks.

[ConfusedStudent]

This is what mine looks like.

[Hondatek]

Ah a little help? Lol

[Hondatek]

I'm like you now confused now.

[ConfusedStudent]

I don't know if mine is right. You got a better grade on the last project....

[ConfusedStudent]

Maybe it's time for ReMark to the rescue.

[Hondatek]

Lol remark help!!!!! Let me go read this section again. Lol

[Hondatek]

• Choose one of the two methods for interpolating the

locations of the contour lines between the spot elevations

(or develop a method of your own). Create layer

Interpolate (color red, linetype continuous) on which to

place each point of intersection. Label each point with

the contour interval. For the interval labels, use style

INTERPOLATE-TEXT. For this style, use the ROMANS

font, a height of 5, and a width of 0.8.

• Once you’ve located all the contour intersections on the

grid lines, drawing the contours is essentially a matter of

connecting the dots. First, set a running OSNAP to NODE.

Use Layer Contours (color yellow, linetype hidden), and

draw a continuous polyline between any adjacent points

that have the same contour interval. Start at one of the

edges of the surveyed area and work your way across the

entire drawing.

THATS WHAT i DID

[Hondatek]

As you’re connecting the node points, note how the sides of

each grid square, formed by a spot elevation at each corner,

will contain two and only two intersections that belong to the

same contour interval. (This is true in all instances, except

where a contour intersection happens to be in the same

location as a spot elevation that serves as one of the grid

square’s corners.) If you find a square that has only a single

node for a contour interval, check to make sure you didn’t

miss marking down another intersection point.

• Use the PEDIT command to establish the properties of

each contour line.

1. Select each polyline, choose the Ltype option, and

then choose the On option. Doing so makes the

hidden linetype properties visible even if the line

segment isn’t very long.

2. For all contour lines except those marking the

70-foot, 80-foot, and 90-foot intervals, also choose

the Fit option for each polyline. Doing so will allow

the polyline to curve between node points.

• Once you’ve drawn the existing contour lines, you can

draw the existing roadways. The main roadway is Cedar

Park Drive.

[ConfusedStudent]

Look at the thread "need help for penn foster civil drafting project" started by Harpal. it may help you.

[ReMark]

Contour lines generally do not have sharp points.

[ConfusedStudent]

Oh good I might have gotten it right this time.

[Hondatek]

Confused what line did you use? I used the polyline just as instructions read.

[Hondatek]

this one Remark. ill do this when i get home. by running the PEDIT command and selecting a polyline then the FIT option the polyline will be fitted with a curve that passes through each point.

[ReMark]

That's the trouble with asking and answering questions that span two threads. A question could be asked in one thread but mistakenly answered in the other. Makes following the course of the conversation problematic.

[Hondatek]

sorry remark. will work on just one thread one question at a time.

[Hondatek]

I got it!!!! Yay! Thank you

[ReMark]

From what I can tell it looks good.
