Calculating Average End Area Cut & Fill Volumes using Civil 3D 

Once again Jeff saves the day! thanks for the help!

GREAT INFO - THANK YOU !!

You are really amazing my friend. Thank you so much!!!

Thank You Mr Jeff

thanks a lot keep going you're the best

I am watching your videos on Lynda. Great job.I wish you could show cut fill calculations for commercial projects

2 year ago when i saw this video i don't understand any thing. But now i have clear concept and i am working on it. So now i understand very well with video speed 0.75😉

Jeff I'm your big fan. I give you like before watching your videos. Your videos are amazing!!! Thanks

I come from a construction background and the way you so you videos are straight to the point and so easy to understand! Currently, I am working in the 4D planning space and one of the biggest items we discuss about is interfaces with existing infrastructure for provision of Traffic management. Would you be able to create a video about the best ways of mapping and modelling existing roads. I have thought about using Infraworks however it is open source and needs refinement. Now i am looking at leverage GIS data in terms of OS mapping and lidar surfaces. But it seems rather manual. Any thoughts would be helpful :) By the way i am not a design engineer but i am very fascinated by the tools!

how did you create the datum surface?

hi jeff. I am just learning Civil 3D. Im wondering how did you make the datum surface. Your response is greatly appreciated.

Jeff i have been watching alot of videos and i cant seem to find an answer and i am hoping you might have an idea. when calculating the cut and fills, how do you account for removal of surface along the daylighting and replacement with top soil? your yellow datum comes up along the pavement and to the tie in point on the existing surface. if say this was rocky along the edge and 5' was replace with top soil, i would want to calculate as part of the cut. any ideas how to include that? thanks

Thank you so much for this video, helped alot!!

Jeff! you are one of the best in the area of civil engineering! I have a question though! Assume I have surveyed the natural sub-grade of a road project before excavation commences and taken survey data. Subsequently, after excavation, I have taken survey data at the same station after excavation work is concluded. Now, having two data with different elevation points, how can I calculate the earthwork volume using Civil-3D? Thanks in advance!

awesome excellent video, much easier than using LSS

best explanation

Hi! Please can you show me how I can makestripping both in fill and in cut of existing ground ? Thanks

Hi Mr. Bartels and thank you, for your great support. My question is the following: Can C3d be forced to place a ditch on the side slope of an embankment? I need to give continuity to this ditch until reach the discharging point. I tried using the BasicSideSlopeCutDitch command to do it, but i can't. Do you have any advice? Than you! Benjamin

I really like the tutorial! but i'm also experimenting with it and won't work (completely). To make a long story short; I made a assembly of a road section with stripping pavement. So I make the quantity takeoff criteria, so far so good (here I can select the surfaces which I created. Than I go to compute materials, I select my criteria which I made and there I can't select the surfaces? it won't show them. What am I doing wrong? (btw it's is kind of strange to select the surfaces again because you already did in de quantity takeoff criteria) Can someone please help?

The is great information 👍 👌 thanks

Great job sir, be blessed

How do you do to have the end result for you earthwork? Not only section by section, but the total to have a final cost of it?!

What Tipe Asembly have you used for daylight , I See you have and extra space after the edge of pavement, what do you do ?

how do we deal with quantity that have been already paid on clearing and grubbing item in Ha. because this fill section volume does not consider the 15cm cleared surface below the Original ground surface . but practical filling material also includes the 15cm that has been removed by clearing activity.

Thank you!!

You’re really the best AutoCad instructor and I appreciate you to much. However, I’ll be much happier if you can go slowly in your step to steps approach. You speaks to fast and sometimes it’s difficult to follow. Thanks

parabéns !!

thank you very much sir

Great. What version of civil 3d is this? 2015 or ?

thank you so much. And where can i find my report from my computer ?

how to put existing ground into proposed grading plan and how to calculate cut and fill if there is materials.need video to watch and learn.thanks Reply

Very good work

Hi if is it possible please make a video about how to converts points in civil 3d

How to add the strippe topsoil?

helpful video

Very nice

Thanks a lot. If possible, could you tell me how to generate single grid with multiple sections in model space like youtube video?

My volume report is coming out to be blank. What to do?

Any chance you can show me how to create the styles you selected in the drop-down menu for the CUT & FILL. Thanks!

Thanks sir

Hi your cut fill volume have a error in calculation 4+25 to 4+50 Their is 25 in 2d distance But compare to road profile and slope It's go more than 25 feet Civil 3D have this problem And iam trying more time but How to solve this problem Till i not know Please answer if you have any idea

sir can you share the file so we can follow. if not it's okay i understand. thanks

but why dont put the link of this blocks to make it easy

sir i am a civil draftsman want to know how to make grading on road will you please help to record a special video on road grading

pls where is the privies video

Sir you belong to which country

dear brother any one have xy.left please share me i lost

add more video
