Graphing design lines in gINT

Hello

 I’m trying to plot my design lines from a large number of boreholes.  I’d like to use graphs, not logs, as I have a large number of boreholes to show on one graph.

 I’d like to plot the design values of certain geotechnical parameters vs depth.  The table I’m reading from has the structure: top, bottom, phi.  I’d like to draw a line between two points with the following x:y coordinates:

  1. Phi : top
  2. Phi : bottom

 I can’t make this work in gINT graphs.  Has anyone faced a similar problem and found an answer?

 Thanks

  • Hi PeeKee

    You can follow the same approach I suggested here:

  • Hi,
    I am also interested in achieving this, even adding some degree of complexity: I need "su1:top" and "su2:bottom".
    Phil, I have tried the method you recommended, without success, I probably put statements in the wrong fields...
    I have also tried something like:

    <<FirstData(<<Table.TopDepth>>,<<Table.BottomDepth>>)>>
    in data expression of Independant data

    and:
    <<Let(d=<<FirstData(<<Table.TopDepth>>,<<Table.BottomDepth>>)>>)>>
    <<Case(<<Get(d)>>,"=<<Table.TopDepth>>",<<Table.su1>>,"=<<Table.BottomDepth>>",<<Table.su2>>)>>
    in data expression of Dependant data

    but it seems to plot only the <<Table.TopDepth>> expression. Would you have an idea why it doesn't work?
    Thank you

  • We do this a lot. We use 'Curves from equations'.

    Originally we controlled the values required via Report Variables. More recently we have created a table in our database to store information for the lines, which we then call up via a single Report variable. We've now got a system that does exactly what we want, although a lot of coding was required (gINT does not make it easy!)
