Magnet Office Volume Error
Hi
I think I have found a error when calculating a volume in Magnet Office. Just seeing if someone can check it for me.
Example.
If I have an existing surface and then lower that surface by 1m for example then do a volume calculation on it.
The volume in the report is being calculated by using the Plan area x 1m where is should be calculating the Surface Area x 1m.
If you have a large surface with a steep slope this can be a big error.
I have attached a test Magnet file with the 2 surfaces and also the report to show this.
I have attached a sample magnet file and also the report.
You will see the volume is calculated using the plan area 216003 x 1m = 2166003m3
The correct calculation should be 601195 x 1m = 601195m3
Can you please let me know if you find something similar and what version you are using
