AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Project Object To Surface / Volume Calcs

Jul 30, 2013

see attachment (object viewer capture). The top surface is my OG, the bottom surface is the bottom of excavation for a building. I want to project the perimeter of the building footprint up to the OG surface at a 1:5 slope. I remember in LDD the perimeter of a building, berm, dam, ditch...could be projected to the OG with specific slopes and then you could create a surface with the projected lines and do a volume calc. between the two. What is the procedure to do this in AutoCAD Civil 3D 2012?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Sample Line Volume Report And Surface Volume Give Different Quantities

Jun 18, 2012

I'm working with TIN surfaces, doing cut/fill comparisons for a surface mine.

My volume surface statistics show a cut volume of 5167.22 cy and fill volume of 8456.18 cy.

The sample line group volume report show cumulative cut of 5527.67 cy and fill of 8465.56 cy.

What could be some causes of this disparity. All reference surfaces are built from points and use a non-destructive boundary.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Cross Section Volume Vs Volume Surface

May 31, 2013

I've read a few threads on this way back but cannot locate them. I have two surfaces and create a volume surface and it reported the volume as 493 cy. I then ran some sample lines at 25 foot interval and the total volume is reported as 964 cy.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Volume Bounded By Existing Surface And Design Surface

Dec 10, 2012

My goal is coming up with the volume bounded by the design surface and the existing surface. I don't have the design surface modeled yet.

Do i need to create alignment offsets?. Alignment 1 profile view is also attached. Then Alignment2.

What about starting with alignment1 profile view? Since I have created a polyline as the design profile ?

how do I shrink labels? Where is it in the settings ; the Align folder had been check.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Surface Volume And Display

Jun 3, 2013

I have a couple of questions regarding surface volumes/analysis in Civil 3D 2014.  First, there used to be a way to determine the volume between two surfaces without creating a volume surface.  The command is _AeccReportSurfaceVolume, but I can't find it on the ribbons in 2014 to save my life.  Do I need to create a new button myself?

Second, and more important, dealing with the elevation analysis in 2014, and noticed that the colors reset anytime that the volume surface is rebuilt?  It has always been annoying not to save a color scheme, but at least once you had set it up, the colors stayed as the surface changed.  Is there a new setting that I am missing, or is this just a glitch with 2014?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Surface Volume Analysis

Jan 3, 2014

I have a large 200+ acre site that I have created a volume surface and analyzed it using the elevation banding with color to show different levels of cut and fill.  The owner has broken this area into 10 different irregular zones.  Is there a way to do the elevation banding of a volume surface and have it color the individual parcels.  They don't all have to be at once.  I can do each one at a time and PDF the drawing.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Using A Surface For Volume Calculation?

Sep 25, 2012

I have run a volume between two surfaces, I need to further to break that new volume surface up to get volumes for each section. I know in microstation you can fence a volume surface and it will tell you the volume for that area. Is there a function in civil 3d that works like this. I know I can break it up manually and create new surfaces, I am looking for a time saving appoarch and trying to minimize file size.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: TIN Volume Surface Shading?

Feb 10, 2012

I have a tin volume surface comprised of proposed and existing models for a large earthwork site. I would like a detailed cut fill diagram for presentation to project owner. The site involves cuts and fills up to 30' depths. I would like to be able to represent not only cuts and fills, but give a visual representation of the depth of cuts/fills (ie darker blues and reds in the deeper areas, lighter in the shallow areas). Is there a simple way to do this without setting up 100 different colors of blues and reds in the volume surface properties analysis tab? I have seen contractor software that performs this function rather easily.

-0.240 (-) -0.220 as it is.

I've tried using contour intervals but nothing seemed to happen.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Surface Volume Is Wrong

Apr 22, 2012

1) when I try to find volume of a cube 1*1*1

c3d volume report is 0.03 c.meter why?

First I make surface1 and import the 4 point with elevation 0 sec. I make surface 2 and import 4 point with elevation 1 then itry to find volume of this cube and my result is 0.03 c.meter why this happen. 

2) if this above method is wrong give me step by step guide of surface and volume.

3) how to find volume at particular level.?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Carriageway Surface Volume

Sep 10, 2013

I am trying to determine the volume of material (cut/fill) for a roadway surface in C3D 2013 using the volume dashboard.

I have created a fictional surface, basic profile and assembly so I can compare my calcs with C3D. After creating my surfaces and running the dashboard calcs, the program calculated the correct cut/fill volume. However looking at the surface in iso, I saw that additional surfaces were produced around zero elevation - refer to attached snapshot

In my actual model, I am well above zero elevation but these additional surfaces could cause problems on other projects.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Editing Surface By Volume

Jun 12, 2013

I have a pumped storage project where I would like to know the water level if a volume of water is removed. Is there an easier way to do this? Currently I have my drawing set up with my base surface and various top water level surfaces. I have been creating volume surfaces for each TWL and populating a spreadhseet that indicates how volume and surface area differs with TWL. It would be incredibly handy to work this in reverse ie ask the volume surface to lose or gain a required volume of water and update the TWL accordingly.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Export Surface Volume Tables?

I'm working in Civil3D 2011.  How to export the data from the surface volume tables to excel, or any other format outside of Civil3D?  

Or maybe a better question: how to create a stage storage table automatically within Civil3D?  The elevations table gives volumes per elevation class, but I'm trying to get cumulative volume stored below various elevations in my reservoir.

At my job site, they is about 20meter height of uneven rock surface in the excavation pit.

To calculate the volume ,I need to include this uneven rock surface wall.

For doing so,The sharp edge will displays in the cross section.

Because the uneven surface, I cannot create the surface with normal step.The TIn line will joins horizontally,not in vertical direction as is intended.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Create Volume Surface To Show Elevation Banding With Cut And Fill Ranges

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Create 3D Object That Gives Volume Info?

The blue surface shown on the attached drawing is a set of break lines added to "Surface A" and then the red is the other set of break lines added to "Surface B". I have already generated the volume enclosed within the surfaces by doing a surface to surface volume calculation.

My Question:I want to combine the enclosed volume created by Surface A & Surface B into a 3D "Block" that give me the volume information.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Curved Surface - How To Increase Volume Of Surface At Certain Points Only

Apr 10, 2013

how I can add more volume to curved object surface? Say for example I have a plastic cup.You can think of this as cylinder object ,which was the shelled out using the shell tool and then had its base sealed.

Now at certain parts, I would like to increase the thickness and then blend it the rest of the surface(may be chamfer its edges) .

At certain parts on curved surface I would like to add an extra mm, I think if the surface was flat I would just sketch the shape, then extrude it by few mm and smooth the edges by doing a chamfer

But how can this be done on surface that is curved? Or multi curved for edges?
