This command is used in conjunction with Design Pad
Template. It allows the user to modify an existing pad
design
that has been generated with Design Pad Template. The original
design
criteria of the pad can be modified and the routine will automatically
re-calculate volumes, re-draw contours,
disturbed limits, tin lines, etc. Possible modifications to the
pad include
cut/fill slopes, pad elevation, x-y position (the pad can moved moved
to a new location), horizontal offset, a single pad vertex can moved to
a new location, a new target surface can be specified, and finally, the
pad and all of its elements can be deleted. Once the new design
parameters
are set, the routine will regenerate the pad based on
the new parameters. The standard report viewer opens to
display the new volume calculation and other design info.
Edit Pad Template requires a target surface to project to, which is
typically the surface designated as the Source of Slope Target
Surface Model in the Design Pad Template command. In Design Pad
Template, when prompted to "Update Surface
File" select Yes.
First the user is
prompted to pick the pad polyline, which must be the original polyline
used with Design Pad Template command.
Subsequent edits to the Pad Template must also be initiated with the
selection of that polyline. The Editing functions are displayed in an
interactive docked sidebar dialog.
Use Slope Groups allows the assignment of varied slopes
along the length of the Pad Template. Select the checkbox, and
pick the Set button to access the Assign Pad Cut/Fill
Slopes dialog box
Fill Slope: displays the original fill slope
criteria, select to edit to a new value.
Cut Slope: displays the original cut slope criteria, select to edit to a new value.
Elevation Delta: enter a
value to adjust the elevation of the entire pad template.
Pad Volume: displays the cut/fill volume generated with the last use of either Design Pad Template or Edit Pad Template.
Surface: Displays the
target surface, pick Set button to change.
Move Pad: Pick to move the Pad Template to a new location on the site. The user is prompted at the command line to "Pick start point for translation" and then "Pick end point for translation". The pad is moved to the new location, with contours, tin lines, disturbed area and volumes regenerated on the fly.
Move Vertex: Pick to move a vertex on the Pad Template. The user is prompted to screen select any vertex within the pad and place it in a new location. The pad vertex is moved to the new location, with contours, tin lines, disturbed area and volumes regenerated on the fly.
Offset: Pick to apply a horizontal offset of
the pad
perimeter polyline. Enter the amount of offset desired in the
field and then
specify whether it is to go in or out.
Note: For subsequent operations
of Edit Pad Template, the original pad polyline must be selected when
prompted. The offset pad polyline is not eligible for selection.
Rotate Pad: Pick to rotate the Pad Template.
Balance: Pick to automatically adjust the Pad
Template elevation to balance the cut and fill volumes.
Delete: removes all of the pad design entities that were generated with Design Pad Template or Edit Pad Template.
Report: Pick to generate a cut/fill volume report.
Process: proceeds with the re-design of the pad using the current criteria.
