Good morning, everyone! So glad it's Friday!

I have a question about Offset HALs in Terramodel. I've recently learned out to use the offset HALs in a situation where my main HAL is down the center of a divided highway but my PGL's are offset on both sides of it. The problem is that it doesn't seem to be acting right after an area where there is a station equation. Can someone help with this? Do the offset HALs take into consideration the station equations on the HAL that they are offset from?

Any help is appreciated.

I will just make a new road job at the station equation. I didn't have to hope I set it up correctly.

I would think they would, but don't know that I've ever tried it. What do you mean by not acting right?

I have a station equation on my main HAL of Bk 625+00 and Ahd 625+81.89. I have the VAL drawn in correctly with a horizontal segment drawn in between those 2 stations. If I hover over my VAL at station 627+00 I get the right elevation of 1263.50.

I have an offset hal 30' Left of my main HAL. For some reason that roadway is ignoring the station equation (even if I add a sta equ to the offset HAL). When I check the cross section editor I get an elevation of 1262.60. This just happens to be the elevation of my VAL 81.89' back. It just seems to be ignoring the equation. I've done everything I can think of to fix it with no luck.
