SURFACE LABEL (volume surface) STYLE HELP

[DACHESTNUT]

I am needing to place a label on a surface that has the elevation of the base elevation at a location, the comparison elevation at a location, and the differnece in elevation between the two.

I am tryng to find a way to do this without having to manually put in the numbers (introducing human error).

Thanks.

I'm sure there are several ways to do this. One is created a typical spot elevation label. Create a Reference Text component within the Label Style Composer. Then created a Third component that also references a surface (for your volume surface elevation). You will need a volume elevation surface style that display either the border or elevation within the Surface Style-Display tab. Once you have all this set you are ready to add your label. Make sure that your existing surface, proposed surface, and elevation volume surface are displayed. Then all you have to do is select the surfaces in sequence. Once you are doing with the labeling you can turn off the volume surface display.

Or you can use the new Earthwork Plan production feature in the new Civil 3D Productivity Pack 1 for 2016. Great simple tool. Once you install the productivity pack the feature is looked in the Toolbox
