In this video, SITECH Intermountain will show you how to record points and manage measured data in Trimble Earthworks. We will cover the following topics:
* Creating points
* Editing points
* Deleting points
* Measuring distances and angles
* Creating 3D linework
* Checking slopes in ratio
* Creating VCL files in Trimble Business Center
* Understanding depth and slope basics
* Using iDig software to estimate material
Here are some additional details about the topics covered in the video:
* Creating points: To create a point, simply click on the "Create Point" button in the toolbar. You can then enter the coordinates of the point in the dialog box that appears.
* Editing points: To edit a point, simply select it and then use the "Move Point" or "Rotate Point" tools to change its location or orientation.
* Deleting points: To delete a point, simply select it and then press the Delete key.
* Measuring distances and angles: To measure the distance or angle between two points, simply select the two points and then click on the "Measure Distance" or "Measure Angle" button in the toolbar.
* Creating 3D linework: To create 3D linework, simply select two or more points and then click on the "Create 3D Linework" button in the toolbar.
* Checking slopes in ratio: To check the slope of a line in ratio, simply select the line and then click on the "Check Slope in Ratio" button in the toolbar.
* Creating VCL files in Trimble Business Center: To create a VCL file in Trimble Business Center, simply select the points that you want to include in the file and then click on the "Create VCL File" button in the toolbar.
* Understanding depth and slope basics: Depth and slope are two important measurements that are used in civil engineering. Depth is the distance from the top of an object to its base, while slope is the angle of an object relative to the horizontal.
* Using iDig software to estimate material: iDig is a software program that can be used to estimate the amount of material that will be needed for a project. To use iDig, simply import the points that represent the boundaries of the project into the software and then click on the "Estimate Material" button.
