ok this is my propbelm
1. in san antonio we design for top of curb 28' pavement how can i create a corridor that will tie the curb on left and right to a single profile without me having to drop my top of curb design in my profile to center of pavement.
2. a station range is actually cross slopeing from top of curb right to my left top of curb in LLD8 we would have a left and right top of curb for section template but how do you do this in a corridor to get a cross slope?

bp,
If i use a basic lane left at -2% and a basic lane right at 2%, this will create a slope acrossed the entire road that is a consistant 2%.
generally when this is done in a curved section, a superelevation formula can be applied the the alignment using standard tapper distances. sub assemblies like inside super right and inside super left will react to the super elevation in the alignment and create the desired effect.
there is no need to make your centerline elevation exactly the same as top of curb.
in a straight line section of road it may take a couple regions with different sub assemblies to create a transition from a crowned road to a cross sloped road.
I hope this helps.

One could also apply the USE function for the sub-assembly to get it's elevation and or slope from another object within the assembly.

Sounds like you are have created a profile for one of your curbs. Then you wish to creat the rest of your roadway off of this profile. This is simple, create an assembly and attach a curb subassembly, depending on whether you have made the profile to follow your Gutter Flowline or your Top of Curb ect attach it there right or left on sure which side you have set your profile to. Then place both your lanes and just as dgordon stated add a cross slope and then place a curb on the other side of that roadway. Hope this is what your asking about

An alternate approach...create your assembly...then add Two OFFSETS one each for your top of curb location. build each side of the roadway in towards the center from the offset
In the corridor properties, asign the offsets to follow the curb alignment and profile
