I have been hired by a contractor to do an asbuilt survey of a Sewer Separation project and they want a profile to compare to the plan for pay item reasons.
I haven't done one with this software before and am looking for suggestions. Is there a way to draw a 3d polyline and tell it to put it into a profile?
I appreciate any help you guys can offer.
Yes, profiles can be made from 3d polylines
Can you tell me how?
Do you have the Civil module? Under the profiles menu, select profile from 3dpoly. You can station it based off a different centerline and combine multiple polylines to a single profile.
Under the Surface menu (Survey module), choose Quick Profile. One of the options is from 3d Polyline. You can then draw it or save it to a file to work with later. The same command is also in the Civil module under the Profile menu.
