In this section
- What information is obtained when using the Analyze Points command?It allows you to determine the relationship of any point with respect to an axis, providing its Station, Offset, Coordinates, Azimuth, and…
- What is the purpose of Points Analysis with respect to road alignment?It is designed for the control of linear works, allowing comparison of an actual survey with the theoretical status of the terrain defined…
- What is the use of Polyline Vertex Stakeout?It allows you to set out the vertices, discretization, or parallel offset of a polyline with respect to an axis. The program automatically…
- What does Points Analysis with respect to Surface allow?Compares the elevations of the points in the drawing with the current surface, listing the coordinates and the elevation difference…
- How are points calculated by Station and Offset?The user enters this data manually or from a .PKD file, and the program calculates the X, Y, Z coordinates and the axis data at that…
- What is Axis Point Setting Out?Calculates the setting out of a roadway by defining the offset, interval, and layer thickness.
- What is Point Setting Out with Respect to Axis?Calculates the setting out by Polar/Bisection of the selected points with respect to the road alignment.
- Is it possible to perform Setting Out Lines of Cross-sections without a defined segment?Yes, this command allows you to obtain data from a cross-sections file and an axis, calculating the PK and offset of the selected codes.
- What is the Simple Section Setting Out used for?It is used to quickly set out roadways without needing to define a complete segment, using only a simple platform and slopes.
- What is the function of Layer Setting Out?Generates a POINT REPORT of analyzed points with respect to the axis, based on user-specified multiple Distances (Offsets), calculating…
- What information do the Platform Vertex lists provide?They show the Station of each platform vertex, the Difference of Cota with the Terrain, and the Slope of each vector at the selected PKs.
- How can the results of setting out lines be exported?MDT allows you to draw the points or export the data to point files, ASCII lists, PDF, or directly to Microsoft Excel or Word sheets.
- What effect does Layer Thickness have on setting out calculations?It is a value that is subtracted from the calculated elevation of pipe nodes to obtain the elevation of a lower layer (subgrade or roadbed…
- Can setting out data be labeled in the drawing?Yes, the Label Points on Alignment command allows you to insert marks with the station, offset, coordinates, and elevation of the analyzed…
- How to set the number of decimals for the elevation when creating stations from points?When creating setting out stations from points in MDT, the command does not ask how many decimals it will assign to the elevation of the…
- MDT25 Setting Out Module Summary TablePoint Setting Out · Calculates angles and distances of points relative to Bases. Polar/Bisection · Bases, points, and method…
- How to obtain the X,Y coordinates of the grade line vertices and of the axis turning points?MDT can list the X,Y coordinates of every vertex of a grade line —that is, of every change of slope— together with the X,Y coordinates of…
- How does tcpMDT Professional help with stakeout and construction control?How does tcpMDT Professional help with stakeout and construction control? tcpMDT Professional lets you prepare stakeout data, generate…
