<strong>QUICK</strong> <strong>START</strong> <strong>GUIDE</strong> (<strong>for</strong> <strong>Eagle</strong> <strong>Point</strong> <strong>software</strong>)<br />

RoadCalc uses sub-projects. A sub-project could be considered as a project or structure related to a particular centerline.<br />

For example, you would create one sub-project <strong>for</strong> the dam and one <strong>for</strong> the auxiliary spillway. There is no longer a<br />

“Sub-project Manager”. Sub-projects are now managed via the project manager window. You will need to create or<br />

open a RoadCalc sub-project be<strong>for</strong>e using RoadCalc functions. This is similar to the “starting a new project” and<br />

“opening an existing project” sections above.<br />

To create a new sub-project, click on (bottom left icon of <strong>Eagle</strong> <strong>Point</strong> project manager window).<br />

Select RoadCalc sub-project.<br />

The current project should be highlighted.<br />

If this is incorrect, highlight the correct one.<br />

Enter a sub-project number.<br />

Enter a description<br />

Select a prototype.<br />

NRCS_MO Embankment contains settings <strong>for</strong><br />

straight alignments with multiple PIs.<br />

NRCS_MO Aux.Spwy contains settings <strong>for</strong> curved<br />

alignments with PC, PI, and PT data.<br />

Click Next> .<br />

In the next window that appears, you will usually<br />

use the defaults (i.e., use the current project<br />

drawing).<br />

Click Finish .<br />
