- Start the._ARC command, enter "C" for center point and pick the endpoint of the line that represents the center point. Next pick the other endpoint of the line, that is the startpoint of the ARC. Next pick the endpoint of the previous line segment. Your curve is complete.

Jan 28, 2010 · You could do a polar array to follow the circular portion in the plan detail, say 5 degree increments, creating "spokes". Then draw vertical lines from spoke endpoints through the elevation detail. using copy multiple, endpoint snaps, trim, should go pretty quick.

These techniques apply to basic CAD programs such as AutoCAD, IntelliCAD, etc. If you have a civil/survey program or add-on, such as Land Desktop, SurvCADD, Eagle Point, etc., then there are built-in tools for entering lines and curves.
Let's say you have a paper plot or a legal description of a closed boundary. Let's work our way around it. Below is an example of what you might have. Start with a line segment if there is one. Let's start in the lower left (or most southwesterly) corner and work clockwise for this example. For each line segment, a bearing and distance is given. St...
The orientation of tangent curves is determined by the previous entity, but for non-tangent curves you need to know how the curve is oriented. This is the case for non-tangent curves in the middle of a figure or if you want to start your figure with a curve. You can use either the Chord Bearing and Chord Distance or you can use the Radial Bearing.
Using most CAD programs including vanilla AutoCAD, you can enter survey data from a drawing or deed without needing any special tools or add-ons. However, if entering this type of data is a frequent occurance, you may consider upgrading to a program that includes faster methods for this type of data entry. Top of page

Apr 27, 2011 · Draw the line first by going to the line drop down menu and pick "by bearing". then in the same pull down menu go to the curves menu and select "curve from end of object" this will draw a tangent curve from the line.
Polylines offer many options for creating forms, including solid fills and free-form curved lines. Spline curves are perfect for drawing accurate and smooth nonlinear objects. In this chapter, you will learn to Create and edit polylines; Create a polyline spline curve; Create and edit true spline curves; Mark divisions on curves; Introducing ...
