Spectra Precision Survey Pro v4.9 - Manual (Page 222)

Use Station Equation: When checked, the current station equation will be applied to the road.
[Equation Settings] : opens the Station Equation screen where a station equation can be configured.
[Backsight…]: Opens the Station Setup screen..
[Next >]: takes you to the next Road Slope Staking screen where the slope staking parameters are set up.
Road Slope Staking - Screen 2
The second Road Slope Staking screen is used to set up some slope stake parameters prior to slope staking the road.
Station: is the station to be slope staked.
Station Interval: specifies how far to advance from the current station to the next station.
[Next Station]: advances the current station by the Station Interval.
Note: If the Stake Corners option is selected in the Stakeout Settings screen, the [Next Station] button will also stop at
any horizontal or vertical alignment node, and the beginning and end of any widening and super elevation that falls
within the interval.
[Backsight…]: Opens the Station Setup screen..
[< Back]: returns to the previous screen.
H. Map Card
The H. Map card displays information about the horizontal details of the road at the current station.
Segment Type: displays the type of horizontal section at the current station.
Left / Right: is the description of the left and right templates that are being used at the current station.
V. Map Card
The V. Map card displays a graphic of the cross-sectional profile of the road at the current station. The hinge points
and slopes are also displayed.
Slopes Card
The Slopes card is used to specify the cut and fill slopes that will be used when computing the location of the catch
point. The default values are the slopes stored in the template for the section being staked. To override a default slope,
check the appropriate box and key in the new slope. The new slope entered will always be used regardless of the
values stored in the templates. Changes to slopes will be reflected in the V. Map card graphic.
Cut Slope: is the left and right slope, respectively, used when the terrain requires a cut (the hinge point is located
below the terrain’s surface).
Fill Slope: is the left and right slope, respectively, used when the terrain requires a fill (the hinge point is located
above the terrain’s surface).
Cut/Fill Hinge Points Cards: The Fill Hinge Points tab and the Cut Hinge Points tab are used to select the segment
