How Divide EarthWork Region ?

hellokim37YT92Y — Fri, 13 Dec 2024 06:57:51 GMT

I created an intersection line (red line) where two surfaces meet.
Based on that red line, I offset it by 10 and 30 units in both directions (blue lines and yellow line).
Let's assume that the area outside the red line is the cut (excavation) zone, and the area inside is the fill (embankment) zone.

I want to divide the generated regions, as shown in the example image, into sections based on a specific standard.
Currently, I am trying to use the Region object for this, but if there is a better approach, I am open to using methods other than Region.

I have been struggling with this task for several days but cannot come up with a suitable method.
Do you have any good suggestions or directions for solving this?

sorry, My English is not good..

Hi @hellokim37YT92Y

As i understood, you may use the grading tools and built these two surfaces you need.

Regarding the sections, you can use an "auxiliary" Alignment, sample it and produce the section views.

I may understood wrong, please give some more information.

Regards

"I want to divide the generated regions, ... into sections based on a specific standard"

Are you dividing by area? If so you could use Parcels.

Are you dividing by volume? That might be trial-and-error. Use a polyline as an "Outer" boundary on the volume surface and keep adjusting the polyline until the volume number is right. I don't know of an automated way to do it by volume.

What is the specific standard?

the volume dash board lets you divide a volume surface by a boundary. Does the specific standard decide how the partitions are set?
