Volume to 2 tins + area in increments

[Tony Iddon]

Hi,

Anyway to add the surface area in increments to the report file for a 12D volume check?

I know you can do it for storage calcs but I need it to 2 tins.

Cheers
Ant

Hi Tony

Does this option do what you are after?
Design =>Volumes =>Tin to tin ht range

There is also this variation
Design =>Volumes =>Tin to tin ht range and centreline

[Tony Iddon]

Almost. It gives me the volumes in increments but I would also like the surface area too if possible.

Tony, You could use the area by string colour report to get the areas of the polygons produced by the above two functions.

Just going to jump in on this lads...

Im doing something similar as in producing a Colour Depth Isopach for a client.
Easily see the highs and lows on a floor surface.

They are now looking for the m2 of each colour on my Depths Table and I was hoping it was a one step process under volumes.

Anyway, I then went to 'Areas by String Colour' but when its comes to an RGB colour it just Totals the RGB range and I don't get the individual colours...

Hi Paul

It is working for me. What build of 12d Model are you using (12.0C1t, 14.0C2f)?
Can you provide a sample of what you have and how you are creating the data?
Also, include an SLX of the panel that creates the coloured polygons.

Hi Graeme,

Thanks for your help. Im running 14.0C2f

When I run this I need to give them the square area at the same time.

Thanks,
Paul

Hi Paul

Sorry, I didn't realise you after a legend with depth ranges and areas.

Anyway, I then went to 'Areas by String Colour' but when its comes to an RGB colour it just Totals the RGB range and I don't get the individual colours...

Report =>More =>Area by string colour This option gives me areas per colour.

I don't know of a way to automatically combine the 2 reports.

Just to add an extra requirement to this, we often have to provide volumes in chainage ranges for mass haul calcs and then surface areas at different slope ranges i.e. Steeper then 1:2 is with Excavator, 1:2-1:4 Dozer, 1:4 and Flatter Grader etc...

The volumes are easy enough with the various tools and macros I have, but I can't get the areas to be split into chainage ranges, only into single polygons which then have their own naming convention which doesn't really help in a report. Does anyone have a macro that can intersect one set of polygons (the chainage ranges) with another set of polygons (the area polygons - baring in mind that you could have all 3 (or more) polygons at any given chainage) to create a new set of polygons that can be named with the chainage ranges - not dissimilar to the Polygons from Sections (multi) option. Or would someone like to give it a crack.....
