The Dam module is used for the design, volume calculation and optimisation of water retaining structures.
The user can define the characteristics of the excavation and fill components of an earth and rockfill
dam or dyke using the design criteria that are common practice in civil engineering.
Main features
Customization of drawing attributes and unit costs for fill materials
Graphic editing of typical cross sections that can be applied to several projects
Use of design criteria to define a component (instead of points, lines and surfaces)
Interactive graphic definition of dam elements:
site - defining the domain and the name of files to use
foundation - with up to five stratigraphic horizons
axis - made of intersection points and curvature radius
geometry - made of typical cross sections along the axis
Display of a plan view from a .dxf file
Display of a longitudinal section along the axis
Display of cross sections at selected positions along the axis
Calculation of the various material zones for each cross section
Volume calculation for each component or zone
Calculation of total costs and cost per material
Production of a summary report of the calculated quantities of materials
Production of a detailed report of the quantities as a function of distance or elevation
Creation of a .stl file for exporting to CAD systems
