Store Offset Points

[Stakeout] [Store Offset Points]

The Store Offset Points screen is used to store points in the current job at a specified offset from an existing polyline
or alignment at a specified interval.

[Tap Line…]: allows you to tap an existing polyline or alignment that the station and offset will be computed from.

[To/From…]: allows you to enter a range of points that define the line where the station and offset will be computed
from.

Begin Station: is the station assigned to the beginning of the line.

[Next >]: takes you to the next Store Offset Points screen where the slope staking parameters are set up.

Store Offset Points - Screen 2

The second Store Offset Points screen is used to define the road profile, or offset distances that will be used to
compute the offset point coordinates.

1/2 Road Width: is the Left and Right width of the road, respectively, from the centerline to the edge of payment.

X-Slope (%): is the Left and Right slope of the road, respectively, from the centerline to the edge of payment
calculated from (rise/run)x100.

Note: A negative slope will result in water running from the centerline toward the edge of payment.

Stake Curb / Ditch: When checked, a curb or ditch and an offset can be defined beyond the edge of the pavement.

Height: is the height of the curb or ditch in feet or meters. A positive value is considered a curb and a negative value a
ditch.

Offset From Edge of Road: is the distance that the curb or ditch extends from the edge of pavement.

Note: The specified curb or ditch height and offset will be applied to both sides of the road.

[< Back]: returns to the previous screen.

[Next >]: opens the next screen.

Store Offset Points - Screen 3

The third Store Offset Points screen is used to define which offset points will be stored.

From Station: is the station where the stored offset points will begin.

To Station: is the station where the stored offset points will end.
