This session will cover a few basics of surface modeling for new users but will primarily be about making BETTER models. It’s not rocket-design but, whether you’re modeling existing ground for a proposed development or as-designed or as-built surfaces for staking and machine control, you are guaranteed to come away from this presentation with new tricks up your sleeve!
Some of the topics to be covered are:
• The importance of breaklines for just about any surface
• Tips for improving surfaces created from contours
• Modeling pads and retaining walls
• Volume calculations and reporting
