earthworks

My question is why would a model civil earthworks in 3d but not come out. when are rectangular no problem but when change shape can not create what would be the best way I have tried to do by creating surfaces but the fourth option would harm me

I don't understand the question.

Me neither - sounds like it was put through Google translate

modeling the surface so that the result is the first image attachment if my drawing is the second image.
I create you the surface of the second image
I do not speak English

If we are going to use an automatic translator, it is important to write very well and very clearly.  (For us writing in English, it is important to spell words correctly so they can be translated.  Use the "Spell Check".)

 

For us to understand your problem you need to explain more.  Write more information. Write in short sentences.  Explain what you have already done.  Explain what happened.

 

I think you said this:

You have success when making a rectangular surface.

But you fail when trying to make a surface with curves.

Is that right?

 

Are you using feature lines?

I surfaces using breaklines
But when I get to the fourth superfice sinks to the bottom
I created the 5 surfaces breaklines separated by 0.001m

and I'm sticking to the final surface
otherwise there faster

Please give us a lot more detail.  Explain everything in small steps.

I attach the drawing
my goal is that at the end it looks like the picture attached
surfaces with slopes between 1:1

  1. Draw a feature line at every break point on the surface.  (Every top of slope and bottom of slope location.)
  2. Use the Elevation Editor to set the elevations on the feature lines.
  3. Add the feature lines to your surface.

NOT UNDERSTAND THE FEATURE OF LINE
I create two lines in the same position a 42-elevation ANOTHER WAVE 41
Should I leave a space between the 2 areas
IF YOU STAND AS THE ELEVATION OF 42

Some vertices acquire 41 LIFT

I think I see what "gsanta" is trying to do.  I am not sure how to explain it.  He is trying to make a series of level benches with a 1 meter drop.  Currently he has a few  small flat individual "surfaces" separated by 1 meter.  He is using a grading object to form the 1 meter drop to each flat surface. These are all individual objects.

 

"gsanta":  Hopefully you have access to the tutorials and go work through them to get a better understanding of how to make a surface.  For starters, if you went to your "Surface Style" and turned on TRIANGLES you could see how the final surface is being formed. It is relatively simple to do what you want to do, but a better understanding of how a surface is developed is needed.

 

Anyone else want to add something?

It is also important to know this: you cannot have a perfectly vertical part of a surface.  If you want something close to vertical draw your two feature lines with 1mm offset from each other.

 

On the other hand, if you are creating separate surfaces, they can be perfectly separated by 1m vertically at a vertical step.  But in this case it is important to know how feature lines work.  If feature lines on the same "site" touch each other, they share the elevation.  If you don't want them to share the elevation, you must create a new "site" and move one of the feature lines onto that.
