Earth Works
Design earthworks by applying a style to the carriageway profile, these are provided in a user definable library. Styles are applied about the edge features of the carriageway enabling simple, multiple slope and berm combination.
📌 Brief Overview: Earthworks design involves the cutting, filling, and shaping of land to create a stable foundation for roads, railways, and other infrastructure. Using a style‑based library, engineers can rapidly model slopes, berms, and drainage features while ensuring geotechnical stability and minimal environmental impact.
Earthworks tools include:
- Earth works wizard with drag and drop style
- Library of simple, multiple and combination slopes
- Single string interface creation
Designing earthworks could not be simpler – drag and drop your required style into one of four panes; the use of customizable styles ensures consistency and productivity.
✅ Why it matters: Optimized earthworks reduce construction costs, balance cut‑and‑fill volumes, and prevent erosion or slope failures. With pre‑defined styles and real‑time visual feedback, engineers can quickly iterate designs to achieve both safety and efficiency.
