TO VARY THE COMPACTION FACTORS

APPLICATIONS > GEOPAK ROAD > CROSS SECTIONS > EARTHWORKS

When the "GEOPAK EARTHWORK VOLUMES" dialog box appears, press and hold down on FILE and release on LOAD.

Select the .LOG file that was made when you calculated your earthwork. Click on OK. Depending on the length of your project... this may take awhile.

When the new "GEOPAK EARTHWORK VOLUMES" dialog box appears, press "Multi Factor Table." This obviously brings up the "Multi Factor Table" dialog box.

The instructions in the manual are very good, so rather than paraphrasing the Manual - See VOL II, Part X, "Earthwork Manipulations," Pages 29-7 to 29-10.
When finished, kill the "Multi Factor Table" dialog box.
To apply these factors, press "CALCULATE VOLUMES" on the GEOPAK EARTHWORK VOLUMES dialog box.
Enter the station ranges and the name of the output .LOG file. I suggest using a new output file name, so that the previous .LOG file is not overwritten.

Press CALCULATE.
When the calculations are complete, review the earthwork log file by using an editor such as Notepad, UltraEdit or Geopak's "built-in" editor..
