Civil3D:
3. Open Traverse.dwg in Civil3D (located in the same folder as this assignment). Complete the
following tasks. Submit both your .dwg file and also the four generated text files.
(Filename format: YourLastName_HW5_P3.dwg)
a. Download and unzip the “Survey Databases” folder from Blackboard.
b. In the existing survey database “Survey2 Data G”: (To make this survey database available,
right click on “Survey Databases” and change the working folder to the folder you just
unzipped – “Survey Databases”). Once “Survey2 Data G” appears in Civil3D, then right click it
and select “Open for edit”
i. Edit the survey database so that Categories is USA and the coordinate zone to
NAD83 California State Planes, Zone VI, US foot
.
ii. Under Networks -> Closed loop, import the fieldbook “SUV2-ClosedLoop.fbk”
(located in the same folder as this assignment). Assign offset to point identifier: No,
Process linework during import: No. All other options should be selected.
c. Under Networks -> Closed loop -> Traverses:
i. Create a new traverse called “Traverse HW4”. The initial station is 5001, the initial
backsight is 6003, stations are 102-105, and the final foresight is 5001.
ii. Conduct a Traverse Analysis (right click “Traverse HW4” in the window below
toolspace):
i. Horizontal adjustment method: Compass rule, Vertical adjustment method:
Length weighted distribution, Update survey database: No.
ii. Save the four text files that are generated and upload them to Blackboard
along with this drawing file.
4. Complete Module 5 – Tutorial 2 – “Translate Data.” This problem shows you how to convert
surveying data from one coordinate system to another for example.
