Civil 3D Canal Design: Create Profile with List Command (2% Slope)

🌿 Civil 3D Canal Design – Part-3: Design Profile Creation Using LIST Command

In this video, we explain how to create a design profile for a canal using a 2% slope and the LIST command in Civil 3D.
This step is crucial for maintaining consistent slope in irrigation or drainage canal designs.

🔧 Steps Covered:

Draw a polyline on the surface profile view

Maintain 2% slope by snapping the polyline correctly

Copy polyline from base point and paste at X=0, Y=0

Use LIST command to extract coordinates

Copy X (horizontal distance) and Y (elevation) into Excel

Use Text to Columns to format data

Add starting elevation and calculate the design profile

Paste final data into Notepad and save as .txt

Return to Civil 3D and use Create Profile from File
🔁 Final profile follows the correct canal slope

✅ Perfect for:

Canal designers

Civil engineers

Civil 3D beginners

Infrastructure planners
