Slope Stake Notes --- FHWA Ver. 2
Invoke the XS Report dialog by using the MicroStation pull downs:
APPLICATIONS > GEOPAK ROAD > CROSS SECTIONS > REPORTS... or from the Road Tools icon as shown below:
The XS Report dialog will appear as shown below. Click User and fill out the Report Header Dialog box. This Report Header information can be saved by clicking on File and selecting the path and file name to be saved. When finished, press Slope Stake on the XS Report dialog.
This brings up the Slope Stake Report Dialog box as shown below:
- Key in the Job number and Chain.
- If you want notes for the entire chain, highlight the Beg Sta. field and press delete. The application will automatically set this field to the beginning station of the chain. Repeat this for the End Sta. Field. You may also simply key in a desired station range.
- Enter all the appropriate Existing Ground Line element symbology,
by clicking the button to the left of the Display button and
identifying the elements graphically, using the Match button as shown
below:
- Enter all the appropriate Proposed Finish Grade element symbology,
by clicking the button to the left of the Display button and
identifying the elements graphically, using the Match button as shown
below, enter only the element symbology for the
cut/fill slope, the ditch and subgrade!
- The Reference Hub group box is used to identify any MicroStation cells that have been previously drawn onto the cross sections to indicate reference hubs that were placed in the field during the original ground survey.
- I recommend that you toggle the Pause on Each XS option to ON.
- For the Western Federal Lands standard slope stake notes (shown below) select FHWA Ver 2.
- Click on the "Text" button. When pressed it allows the user
to instruct GEOPAK to look for specific "search" text along proposed
finish grade and label it in the notes. The "Text" dialog is
shown below:
- Click on File and select the path and file name for your Slope Stake notes.
- When finished... Click Apply.
