How to provide slope for embankment layers in Road Estimator?

Procedure to define embankment layers with template slope:

While defining embankment layers, we provide cross slope / camber in percentage for left side and right side e.g. 2.5%. This can create issue in the stretch of the road where it is super elevated.

In Road Estimator, this can be easily addressed by providing notation in the Left camber / Right camber input box. If "CW" is entered as camber, embankment slope taken will be same as the camber value provided in carriageway definition of the Template.
