In the default Imperial Earthworks XML report under the Sections "Quantity
Takeoff..." menu, the volume headings read as "Cu. ft.". They should be
revised to "Cu.Yd".. The calculations performed are correct; the headings
in the default XML need revising.
And Yes, I'm working on Sunday. No football today.

Doing a spot check of random sections in my model, I'm getting good valid
results. No errors in calculated areas. It did take me a while to get the
corridor model and the assembly I created working like I wanted it to
though.
My task was to calculate earthwork along a water line trench where we have
two different water lines with 2 different vertical alignments. One water
line is 12"; the other changes from 2" to 6" to 8" long the alignment, so
that didn't make things any easier. So I created one corridor model
containing one horizontal alignment and two vertical alignments/profiles.
After fiddling around with the sub-assemblies for a while, I got my sections
the way I wanted them to show up. Then used "Quantity Takeoff" to generate
the amount of excavation required (all Cut volume). I noticed after
printing the report that the volume headings were labeled in Cubic Feet
which really threw me for a loop at first. But then after manually figuring
a couple of sections by average-end method, I concluded that the volume
headings in the standard XML template should be listed in Cubic Yards.
I'm still trying to get a grasp on the "Link Templates". I wish there were
more detailed examples of usage. I viewed the webcast on Assemblies and
Sub-assemblies but that didn't show any demonstrations of how to use them;
just discussed methodologies (powerpoint slides; no live demos).
