Slope XX Buttressed Cut Slope
Typical Cross Section
Parameters
| SGCutSlp | Cut slope of subgrade below buttress material, |
| ButtressTopWidth | This parameter sets the width of the buttress material at the top. Note |
| ButtressBtmWidth | This parameter sets the width of the buttress material at the bottom of the buttress but above the shear key. |
| TopShearKeyWidth | This parameter sets the top width of the shear key. |
| ShearKeyDepth | This parameter sets the shear key depth. Note |
| ShearKeyFrontSlope | Slope of shear key slope nearest component attachment point, |
| ShearKeyBackSlope | Slope of shear key slope furthest from component attachment point, |
| MinSlopeHt | Minimum height of buttress slope. Note |
| PipeDiameter (advanced) | This parameter sets the pipe diameter in the shear key. Note to remove the pipe, set this parameter to 0. |
| PipeHzOffset (Advanced) | this parameter can be adjusted to manually position the pipe horizontally relative to the top of the shear key at the back. |
| PipeVtOffset (Advanced) | this parameter can be adjusted to manually position the pipe vertically relative to the top of the shear key at the back. |
| bCloseButtress (Advanced) | this parameter can be set to zero so the buttress height is explicitly set by the MinSlopeHt. |
| bAllowInFill (Advanced) | this parameter can be toggled on to allow the buttress to be included in fill conditions. |
