Slope Staking the Road
The road slope staking procedure is nearly identical to the non-road
layout slope staking routine described on Page 142. The main
difference is the road layout templates can contain more segments,
which slightly modifies the options of where the hinge point should be
located in a situation where a fill is required.
Like with the road stakeout example above, this example describes
how to set up road slope staking and then refers you to the non-road
layout example where the screens are identical.
1. Tap 5RDGV , 6ORSH 6WDNLQJ from the Main Menu to open the
Road Slope Staking screen.
2. Tap the 7DS 5RDG« button to open the Tap on a Road screen. All
of the roads that exist in the current job will be displayed.
3. Tap on the road that you want to stake and then tap OK. When
the road is selected, it will be drawn with a bold line.
4. If the backsight is not yet defined, tap the
%DFNVLJKW« button to
set up your backsight.
5. With the road selected, tap
1H[W ! to continue.
6. In the Station field, enter the station that you want to slope
stake and in the Station Interval field, enter the distance
that you want the Station to advance when you are ready
to slope stake the next station.
7. The + 0DS and 9 0DS tabs are used to view information
about the horizontal and vertical details of the road at the
current station. Tap the
6ORSHV tab to set up your slopes.
8. Four separate slopes can be defined for situations
requiring a cut or situations requiring a fill, and can be
different on the right and left sides of the road. Fill in the
slopes that apply to your particular job. (The fill slopes do
not need to be entered as negative values since Survey Pro
knows that these are negative slopes.)
9. Tap the )LOO +LQJH 3RLQWV tab to define where the hinge
