Analyzing Sectional Volumes
Topics in this section
- About Analyzing Sectional Volumes
Use the material volumes functionality to extract and report sectional material volumes, based on sample line groups. - About Sampling Sectional Volumes Across Multiple Baselines
You can include multiple baselines in a corridor volume calculation, but you should make sure that the assumptions for the volume calculation method are satisfied. That is, the distance (L) must be accurate for all baselines. - About Quantity Takeoff Criteria
Create quantity takeoff criteria in preparation for generating quantity takeoff tables or reports. - To Work With Quantity Takeoff Criteria
- About Generating Material Lists for Sample Line Groups
Use the Compute Materials command to generate a material list for a sample line group. - To Generate a Material List for a Sample Line Group
- About Defining Gaps and Pockets of Materials for a Material List
In situations where volume computation should not occur, you can define gaps in the materials. - To Define Gaps and Pockets of Materials for a Material List
- About Calculating Volumes for Overlapping Materials or Overhangs
You can accommodate complex volume situations by defining subcriteria. - To Calculate Volumes for Overlapping Materials or Overhangs
- To Review Sectional Volume Results Graphically
- About Creating Sectional Volume Tables and Reports
Use the table and report creation commands to analyze sectional volumes. - To Work With Sectional Volume Tables and Reports
- To Work With Quantity Takeoff Table Styles
