  • Limits of Construction unable to find L chain

    Hi all. I am relatively new to using microstation v8i SS2. I understand that it is outdated, but I must use it for this particular project. I am trying to use the limits of construction tool in order to generate slope stakes. I am able to set everything…

  • Is there a way to separate proposed excavation (cut) and fill on plan view - PowerGEOPAK SS10

    Per subject - is there a method to split excavation and fill per the proposed model? In the cross section viewer you are able to see the cut and fill graphic easily but I would like to view them from the top and split them for wetland impact purpose.…

  • OpenRoads Earthwork

    Hello, I am using Geopak SS4 and I am trying to get earthwork values similar to legacy Geopak products. I have created proposed corridor models and an existing conditions model using surface templates (existing pavement, topsoil, sidewalk etc.) and…

  • GeoPAK Earthwork Input file

    I am running Microstation SS2 with GeoPAK and am currently doing earthwork via input files. I have ran several roads today and they have all ran without issues. I have just been doing a "save as" to make new input files and now I am getting this: …

  • Geopak Earthwork Question

    I need to take earthwork quantities and leave out some elements in my cross sections. In the area of concern, there is existing ground/pavement. There is also some widening pavement already in place from earlier traffic maintenance. This widening…

  • SS3 - Bottom Mesh from Surface Template

    I'm working on a site model for an outdoor track and field complex. So far, I've completed my horizontal and vertical geometry, created terrain objects (one for the track, another for the sidewalk, a third for the infield, and a fourth for the outfield…

  • Why can't Geopak Zero out XS that don't have proposed?

    As I do my earthwork runs, I have some construction that starts and stops and starts again. I would like Geopak to read those sections without proposed construction as "Zero volumes". Instead it skips over them, carrying earthwork quantities through areas…

  • Earthwork Error Message - XS-W-Dangprop

    Geopak V8i 08.11.07.615 I'm running Geopak Earthwork on cross sections and am constantly getting the "XS-W-DANGPROP Proposed undercut element between points:..." The earthworks ran fine in Geopak v8. I tried unlocking all elements and adjusting…

  • Re: Top soil component not being drawn when cutting xs from the cm dtm

    I uploaded the ALG, ird, existing ground tin, rdp, gpk, and two cross-section dgns in the 0261020.zip folder. In the Clark_xsd.dgn Topsoil is drawn correctly at station 2+00 and earlier, and then when milling is added at 2+25, the topsoil disappears.…

  • Re: Ignore vs Skip Areas in Earthworks

    I'll add a little more to this: Ignore areas will not calculate end areas for the stations you call out. It will however compute a volume between the station before and after the called out stations. For example, if I have called out ignore areas…

  • Run GeoPAK Earthwork Manually

    Is there a way to run the earthwork application manually so that it reads and calculates shapes already created? This would be very beneficial for the complicated earthwork scenarios I have on my project: It doesn't know what to do in some areas and I…
