Site model cut fill plan

[jpccrodrigues]

Hi, good evening,

 

Did anybody developed a site model plan with a gradient representation of the cut and fill areas? Similar with what you achieve in civil 3d: https://globalcad.co.uk/civil-3d-cut-and-fill-how-does-it-work/

 

Any suggestion to advice a 2d plan with this info? Builder is asking for it, I'm open for suggestions 🙏

 

Thanks!!

Saw this post:

 

 

But looks like it lost itself over the time.

 

Thanks!!

I have also really wanted this feature - as the blue/red cut fill just isn't very helpful in easily understanding how much cut/fill is happening and where. I feel like it probably isn't t he hardest function to add...but it would be good to put on the wish list, or suggest via the roadmap.

Ok, crazy workaround that gets close to the desired effect:

1 - Copy of the final site model

2 - Put 3d representation with “Cut and Fill”

3 - In 3d view, explode the site model

4 - Explode the resulting mesh

5 - With the 3d polys, create a new site model, removing its skirt in 3D Settings

6 - In 2d, representation with coloured elevation

7 - Explode site model

8 - Extract 2d representation and overlay the original site model

 

Again, crazy workaround and no height control of a feature that seems not that difficult (slopes are contralable…).

Any easier way? Any suggestions?

 

Should be included in the VW roadmap 🙂

 

Thanks!!
