[Jose E. Calderon]

It it possible to createa road on a site model with a complex cross section profile?

 

I have to design a road   with a compelx road - gutter -  shoulder profile. Look image attached .  The examples in VW Land design only offers a road with a simpel square gutter. Any help?

Vectorworks isn't the best tool for this type of work.  However, if you must model it instead of referring to details, you could accomplish it by using the Extrude Along A Path tool found in the Modeling menu.  Here's an example of how to use it on a swimming pool, but the concept would be the same for what is shown in your detail.
