This command is used in conjunction with Design Bench Pond. It allows you to
modify an existing pond design that has been generated with Design
Bench Pond. The original design criteria of the pond can be
modified and the routine will automatically re-calculate volumes,
re-draw contours, disturbed limits, tin lines, etc. Possible
modifications to the pond include cut/fill slopes, pond elevations,
x-y position (the pond can moved to a new location), horizontal
offset, a single pond vertex can moved to a new location, a new
target surface can be specified, and finally, the pond and all of
its elements can be deleted. Once the new design parameters are
set, the routine will regenerate the pond based on the new
parameters when the Process button is selected. The standard report
viewer opens to display the new volume calculation and other design
info.
Edit Bench Pond requires a target surface to project to, which
is typically the surface designated as the Source of Slope Target
Surface Model in the Design Bench Pond command. In Design
Bench Pond, when prompted to "Update Surface File" select
Yes.
The Edit Bench Pond command starts with a prompt to pick a pond
polyline which can be any of the side slope or perimeter polylines
created by the Design Bench Pond command. Another way to start Edit
Bench Pond is to double-click on one of the pond polylines.
When the command starts, a dialog is docked on the left side of
the drawing window. This dialog allows you to edit the pond while
still being able to run other commands.
Cut Out Slope: displays the original cut slope criteria, select to edit to a new value.
Fill Interior Slope: displays the pond interior slope for
fill condition, select to edit to a new value.
Cut Interior Slope: displays the pond interior slope for cut condition, select to edit to a new value.
Top Elevation: enter the
top elevation of the pond.
Bottom Elevation: enter
the bottom elevation of the pond.
Pond Earthworks: displays the cut/fill earthworks and storage volume calculated with the last use of either Design Bench Pond or Edit Bench Pond.
Surface: Displays
the target surface, pick Set button to change.
Move Pond: Pick to move the pond 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 pond 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 top of pond
perimeter. The user is
prompted to screen select the vertex to edit and place it in a new
location.
Add Vertex: Pick the position for a
new point to add into the pond perimeter.
Offset: Pick to apply a horizontal offset of the top
of pond perimeter polyline. Enter the amount of offset desired in
the field and then specify whether it is to go in or
out.
Rotate Pond: Pick to rotate the pond.
Balance: Pick to automatically adjust the pond
elevation to balance the cut and fill volumes.
Delete: removes all of the pond design
entities.
Set Storage: prompts for a target
elevation and storage, and then resizes the pond to fit.
Stage-Storage: write a stage-storage
.cap file for the current design.
Report: Pick to generate a cut/fill volume and
stage-storage report.
Process: proceeds with
the re-design of the pond using the current criteria.
