  • When I am creating a surface it is always like this. Surface is creating, but expanding the surface tab(+sign) its showing all zero value as shown in the above screen shoot. How can I solve this issue?

  • How are you creating the surface?

  • Thank you for your help…..

    Let me explain how I created the surface

    1. I opened the power civil by double clicking the desktop icon
    2. The dialog box is appearing for file open I select the new file option from the top, left fide of the Bentley icon and given a file name LEARNING-1 and save. I choose the seed file from (C:\ProgramData\Bentley\PowerCivil V8i (SELECT series 4)\WorkSpace\system\seed\seed2d.dgn)
    3. Then I selected the LEARNING-1 file and open.
    4. When the file is opened from the menu power civil tool I click Explorer show/ hide
    5. Select the surface tab, from the surface tree right click chose new, type –existing, name - LEARNING-1, Description- LEARNING-1 , then apply and close. Under default LEARNING-1 is created with a red rectangle.
    6. Right click and set active
    7. Now, from the Task-Terrain Model (in the Q division) I chose create from ASCII file and selected the survey data
    8. Create terrain model from ASCII file dialog ax is displayed. From that create text import settings from the columns feature type select as points, space tick, easting, northing, elevation selected, then click next, next, finish
    9. Save text import wizard is come up and I saved the file as LEARNING-1 then click the import icon.
    10. Surface is created, but when I select the surface LEARNING-1 . contours, triangles and everything in the right side is “0”

    Could you please tell me where I did the mistake, and help?

  • It sounds like you are using InRoads SS3 or SS4. Is that correct? It also sounds like you are creating an "InRoads" Surface and and "OpenRoads" Surface (Terrain). They are not the same thing. If you are using InRoads SS3 or SS4, you are working with a transitional version of the software that is part InRoads and part OpenRoads. Creating and OpenRoads Terrain doesn't automatically create an InRoads surface. That may be your basic confusion. Are you just trying to learn this software, or use it on a project in a production environment? SS3 and / or SS4 are not good versions to begin learning on. I would recommend either InRoads SS2 or OpenRoads Designer CONNECT.
