===[[#File Federation | File Federation]]===
 
−
 
 
−
It is extremely important to protect the data that we are designing. All CONNECT edition data lives in a DGN and can no longer be recovered from an external source such as a GPK file. Federating files allow allows for maximum efficiency when working with a large design team since there is less risk of two designers needing to access the same file.
 
−
 
 
−
'''In General'''
 
−
 
 
−
*Each alignment should have it's own DGN
 
−
*Each alignment should have it's own Superelevation DGN (if required)
 
−
*Each corridor should have it's own DGN
 
−
*Each designer should work in their own template library
 
−
 
 
−
While this does create a lot of DGN files on a large project, container files can be created for each type of file to make accessing or reviewing other data more streamlined.

===[[#Corridor Processing Order | Corridor Processing Order]]===
 
−
 
 
−
Understanding what a corridor is doing it is processing is important because the techniques that are used to create the corridor can have a large impact on processing speed. In general, the corridor is processed in the following order:
 
−
 
 
−
 
 
−
# The template is dropped, and points are placed in their default location as they are currently saved in the template library
 
−
# Parametric constraints are applied; Points are recalculated
 
−
# Horizontal Feature Constraints are applied; Points are recalculated
 
−
# Point Controls are applied; Points are recalculated
 
−
# Display rules are computed
 
−
# End conditions are solved
 
−
 
 
−
 
 
−
'''Some important notes on the above processing order'''
 
−
 
 
−
* You can think of the order of processing as a priority for that specific constraint. For example, if a point control and a parametric constraint are placed on the same point over the same station range, the point control will win. This is because point controls are calculated after parametric constraints.
 
−
 
 
−
* The locations of the points are calculated and updated multiple times. Display rules are not calculated until after the location of the points have been established. A complex template with many display rules will process much slower than a simple template because the locations of template points are calculated multiple times even if the component is not visible.
 
−
 
 
−
===[[#Corridor Modeling Techniques | Corridor Modeling Techniques]]===
 
−
 
 
−
There are many different effective approaches to corridor modeling. In general, the modeling approach will fall into one of three categories
 
−
 
 
−
# Super Template: One template is used for each corridor. The corridor is manipulated and changed using a series of complex display rules.
 
−
# Simple Templates:  Multiple full width templates are created for each typical cross section.
 
−
# Multi-Corridor: Each major component of the corridor is broken into separate corridors. For example, a backbone corridor for the lanes and pavement section, and left and right side corridors for shoulders, curb and gutter, side slopes, and ditches.
 
−
 
 
−
It is important to decide the method that will be used to model the project early in the modeling process, as it can be difficult to change gears after a substantial part of the modeling has been completed. The table below has been created to compare the different modeling approaches

Items to take into consideration are:
 
−
 
 
−
* How many designers will be working on modeling related tasks
 
−
* How important is corridor processing speed
 
−
** On a small project, processing speed may not be a consideration as all of the above methods will process fast
 
−
* Skill level of the design team
 
−
** While super templates can be difficult to modify, an experienced user may find this easier than managing many templates and corridors
 
−
** How comfortable is the design team with managing many files
