Adding Boreholes to the Drawing (DWG)

Import the data into the Civil 3D project DWG.

1. Open the Manage Data dialog box.
2. From the Manage Data dialog box select the Add Boreholes to Drawing button. A dialog box will alert you that the boreholes from the project database were retrieved and ask you if you would like to zoom to extents.

3. Select “Yes” to pan and zoom the viewport to the location of the geotechnical COGO points. Select “No” to leave the viewport as is. Boreholes will now be displayed as COGO points in Civil 3D.

Loading Boreholes from a Pre-Existing Project into the Geotechnical Modeler

The Geotechnical Modeler stores all imported project data in a database located on the local machine. You can bring in borehole data into the drawing from any of the predefined projects within the database. To load predefined project data:

1. Open the Manage Data dialog box by selecting Manage Data from the ribbon.
2. From the Project drop-down at the top of the dialog box, select the desired project by either number, name, or identification. If no projects are displayed in the dropdown, then none exist in your local database.
3. To add the project boreholes to the drawing select the Add Borehole Locations to Drawing button.
4. A dialog box will alert you that the boreholes from the project were retrieved and ask if you would like to zoom to extents.

5. Selecting “Yes” will pan and zoom the viewport to the location of the geotechnical COGO points. Selecting “No” will leave the viewport as is. Boreholes will now be displayed as COGO points in Civil 3D.
