Let's simulate the first lesson you would find in a high-quality PDF tutorial. We will build a simple Basic Trench subassembly.
Objective: Create a 1-meter wide trench, 0.5 meters deep, with a variable bottom width.
Workflow (as shown in most PDF guides):
Define Targets:
Geometry Script:
Links:
Shape: Create a closed shape using L2, L3, L4, and L1. civil 3d subassembly composer tutorial pdf
Why this is a PDF example: The math for P3 requires an explanation of coordinate geometry (X offset = (TopWidth - BottomWidth)/2). A static PDF allows you to study this formula at your own pace.
