export material tables

Hi, I have created material tables that give the area on different profiles on Civil 3d with 'Create Material Volume Table':

This is exactly what I wanted but now I need to export it in xls, csv... but no way!

The command tableexport says it is not a table, and the The Civil Table Export add-in is not available anymore on the  autodesk site. The volume report in xml doesn't show the same areas:

I am turning crazy, can someone help me? thank you!

Hi @marie-laurence.pollet, I hope you are doing well. An alternative to get that report is this one:

it will provide the same report, but this option gives you the chance of getting an Excel file that it is easier to edit. Just hit the button with the folder on the lower right corner, select the save location and change the file type to XLS.

 

I hope this helps. Best regards!

Hi Camilo, thank you very much for you quick reply.

Unfortunately as I said in my previous message this table doesn't show the material areas of my profiles...

What I need is the material table, not the volume table. Or maybe did I do something wrong?

I need these 2 areas:

They both appear in the material table, not in the volume report.

Hi @marie-laurence.pollet, I'm sorry I misunderstood your post. You are right, the report won't show you the area of those hatch you have on the profile. That report shows the estimated sectional volume.

 

I have used those profile hatches just as a visual representation of the cut and fill locations along my main alignment. I have never used them to estimate material quantities.

 

I am curious about your request. Could you please explain what you are trying to do?

 

Regards!

Hi,

I believe your table topic 'Profile' is a wrong term.

Actually it should be the sample line number.

Select your table, right-click and go to edit table style.

You will see what I pointed out.

I re-cerated the scenario in my Civil 3D for you to get a better understanding.

So you can do a simple formatting to the excel table you have to get the end result.

Hi Jeewana,

Actually 'profile' is a word my client understands, as sample line is an autocad term that won't mean anything to him (french client).

Hello Camilo,

This request is actually a strange request from a french state client... He wants to determine the 'wetted sections' of the channel on 40 profiles, under 2 different sea levels (-0.85 m CM and 0 m CM). I think this is a way for him to evaluate the available volume of possible evacuation of the water to the sea, by multiplying the area of each profile by the interprofile distance (old method indeed).
