Niblick Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Robert or anybody else, I am working on a project with 0.5 m contours lines (about 50) and create a model no problem from it. I then use the pad tool to adjust the contours to creat a proposed model and that works brilliantly. I get a huge problem when I ask the program to work out the cut and fill. The figures are up in the million cubic figures when really they should be down in the thousands. Is there anything that I could be doing wrong. I sent the files to my support company in Britain and he is struggling to make sense of it as well. I have also tried just scanning the drawing then recreating the contours just over one area to 'pad' and only used 2m contours and still the figure up in the millions. The size I am talking about for the small calculation is a soccer pitch which is 60m x 100m with a 5 metre fence put around it. The pad is working great but the cut and fill is a nightmare. Any ideas? Cheers, Brian Phillips M.Sc. Golf Course Architect www.niblickgolfdesign.com XP VW11 Landmark Quote Link to comment
