How did you get your pc to the right of culdesac. I measured 50ft. away from center of culdesac starting point and it is to the left due to the driveway contour. I mean, are you supposed to rotate the drawing before transferring points.

The section follows the centerline. If you project the points from the cul-di-sac perpendicular to the centerline, this will give you the locations.
Be carefull about rotating the drawing. This can change your bench mark position. I would copy the drawing to a new drawing that you will not be turning in.
This way it will be safe to make the changes, and if it isn't right you do not loose the origional drawing.

i got it. the ocean avenue section wasn't working correctly with center of culdesac being west of sta 0+50. i rotated the drawing where everything correlated west to east and left to right. It looks like yours now so I will assume that it is correct> thanks for your help
Your welcome, good luck

CAR COULD you post a close up of section A. I am having a hard time understanding how to transfer the points for the cross section since it is looking at the driveway from the east to west instead of south to north as the profile was.

Car: Why do you have two separated drawings on plate 4? The instructor just emailed me and said that it was one drawing. If this is so, then that's a fairly small drawing for the 11 x 17 drawing sheet.
