The geotechnical cross-section (longitudinal profile through boreholes) is built directly from the borehole logs of the project. It stays dynamic: any change to a log (layers, depths, water level, coordinates) is taken into account when the section is displayed.
CiviLab allows you to:
- select the boreholes of the section among the logs of the project (A / B and column templates);
- read the X, Y, Z coordinates from the test data, calculate them from the position on the map, or type them;
- place the boreholes at their cumulative distance along the profile (or at a typed distance);
- connect layers of the same unit automatically, with pinch-out for a layer without correspondence, and adjust the connection layer by layer;
- colour the layers by the log texture or by a list of soil classes (editable colours);
- show the layer parameters (γ, c′, φ′…), interface levels, natural ground and water table;
- print the sheet in A3 landscape, with horizontal and vertical scales, vertical exaggeration and legend;
- export the section to DXF (AutoCAD R12): one layer per soil unit, outlines, boreholes, ground, water table and texts.
