Question :

Can I get a quick information about the cut and fill for existing terrain and a surface in OpenRoads?

Answer :

The "Create Cut and Fill Volumes" tool calculates cut and fill volumes between two surfaces and creates a 3D mesh solid with volume attributes. The volumes can be viewed in "Properties" or "Elemen Information".

Steps :

1. Select the tool from "Task Manager > Terrain Modelling".

2. Follow the heads-up prompts, select the existing surface, select the Design surface.

3. Select the Feature Definitions for cut and fill, and give a data point to accept the selection.

4. Select the cut and fill mesh created in the view, and check the volumes from the Element information or Properties.
