Road stakeout by chainage and offset

• The Road stakeout function allows to stakeout road axis selecting the reference axis, specifing the chainage and the offset.

• From the Roads page select Road stakeout.

  

• Select the road to stakeout and press Accept.

• The software guides to select the station and offset to stakeout on the road design.

Station and interval

• The page allows to define the chainage for the road stakeout.

  

  • Station: the station to stakeout. Tap the icons to change the station of the defined Interval. Enter the station or tap on > to define the station using different methods:

    • Measure: measure using the current instrument to calculate the station at the measured position.

    • List: obtains the station from the list of available cross sections and change of road geometry (beginning of a curve, ending of a curve, etc.).

  • Interval: the interval to calculate the following stations. Tap on > to calculate the interval entering the number of segments the road has to be divided.

    

  • Surface: if the road design has multiple layers, allows to choose the layer to stakeout.

• On the right panel it is available a preview of the selected station.

  • : to show the station position on the horizontal alignment.

  • : to show the station position on the vertical alignment.

  • : to show the cross section at the defined station.

• Press Next.

Offset

• The following page allows to select the vertex of the cross section to stakeout.

  

• Tap on and to change to previous or next vertex.

• Tap on > to select the vertex from the cross section view, selecting also a different layer.

  

• Or enter manually the values of offset and elevation.

  • Offset: the horizontal distance from the centerline. A negative value is on the left side of the cross section.

  • Elevation: the elevation of the point to stakeout.

• Press Next to stakeout the point.

Stakeout the chainage and offset

• The commands to stakeout are very similar to the standard point stakeout.

  

• The left bar shows the indications to stakeout the point using the selected Reference for stakeout.

• The bottom bar shows information on the position on the road design:

  • St: current station.

  • Of: current offset.

• Tap on to change the View mode.

  • CAD: shows the CAD view.

    

  • Cross section: shows the cross sections view.

    

  • Compass: shows the compass view.

    

• Press Measure and Accept to save the stakeout measure.

• Press Next to select the next point to stakeout.

  

  • Next point: selects the next vertex on the cross section at the same station.

  • Next station: selects the next station and use the same vertex.

  • Previous point: selects the previous vertex on the cross section at the same station.

  • Previous station: selects the previous station and use the same vertex.
