Run a String Conformance Report

The String Conformance Report command is to report as-built strings against a design string such as Kerb, barrier, drainage, and walls. It includes options for summary display and an option to visualize output in plan-view prior to creating report.

Click Load or Save at the top of the command pane, then populate the command with the appropriate rule sets and save it in a file that can be reloaded in the future.

Report tab

As-Built

Select an as-built line string to use in the report (optional). Optionally, change the selection highlight color.

Note: The highlight color does not work on pipe strings.

Pipe Level

Select the justification required for reporting.

As-Built Points

Optionally, select as-built points to use in the report.

Design

Select the design line to report against. This line can be the same as the control. Optionally, change the selection highlight color. Click Ref to select the line from Reference files.

Vertical offset

Specify a vertical adjustment to apply to the design line string.

Pipe Level

If you've selected a Pipe string, choose the justification required for reporting.

Control

Required field: Select the control alignment to report chainage and offset. Optionally, change the selection highlight color. Click Ref to select the line from Reference files.

Restrict chainage
Start station
End station

Check to restrict chainages between the Start chainage and End chainage specified.

Extended Control and Design strings

Check to extend the design and control line strings to report points just past the end of the specified the distance.

Tolerances

Upper tolerance
Lower tolerance
Left tolerance
Right tolerance

Enter the vertical and horizontal tolerance values to check the as-built against.

Report As-Built nodes

Check if you want to report only the nodes on the as-built line string.

Note: You must have one of these reporting interval options selected if using an as-built string.

Report at regular Control interval

Check to report at regular intervals you specify in Control interval along the as-built line string.

Measure as-built length

Start offset

End offset

Check to report the endmost as-built locations against the end of the design string for length. Use the start and end offsets to adjust the design length location reported against. This reports the As-built and Design grade between the endmost location.

Note: these lengths are measured along the Control alignment.

Include As-Built point IDs

Check to include as-built point IDs in the report

Include As-Built point codes

Check to include as-built point Codes in the report

Include easting/northing delta

Check to include the easting/northing delta in the report.
