Customizing Log reports and fence diagrams

Hi,

I am totally new to gINT. I have gathered some basic knowledge and know how of the work environment by sifting through some of the manuals, help files, and online resources on Bentley website. However, I seem to have reached a dead-end in my search to look for ways to customize the borehole logs to suit my needs.

My requirements from gINT at this moment are very basic and I am looking for resource material that can directly guide me to achieve these goals. The objectives I want to achieve from gINT right now are as follows;

1. Make a borehole log according to a customized format which we already use in our company. (I have had a look at several of the pre-installed library files and their respective templates but they don't suit me ant I have to make several modifications 

2. Import a site layout plan of my project area (with boreholes marked on it). I understand that we can import a dxf but if the boreholes are marked on the dxf, do we still have to input the borehole layout information manually in the INPUT>BOREHOLES screen.

3. Make a fence diagram according to my own custom format.

I shall be thankful if someone can guide me to the resource material by which I can achieve the aforementioned objectives.

  • Hi. No.2:- Import your dxf file into the Site Map tab, making sure that the boreholes and their labels are on a separate layer on their own. then zoom in on a BH and select Site Map - Assign PointID Coordinates and click on the centre of your BH marker. Do this for all the BHs, then zoom to extents of your drawing, hide all layers exceptthe ones containing the BHs and labels and delete the contents of those layers and when you go back into the Input tab and go to the hole table, you will see that all the BHs will have Northings and Eastings. When you output this on your Site Map output template, gINT will add whatever BH markers you have specified when creating the template for the little red circles.
    As for the other two points.... there are many people here who could write a very large book on the subject. There is no quick and easy way to impart this info. You could always try http://www.gintdev.co.uk (a shameless bit of self promotion)
