Calculate Haul Factors

After creating a regrade polyline with Design Regrade, this command will calculate how far and how much earth must be hauled in order to obtain the regrade from the existing grade. Areas from cut will be moved into areas of fill. In order to be optimal, this command expects even amounts of cut and fill. Haul factors measure the amount of earth moved times the distance. There is also an option to label the cut and fill areas.
