Key Features Include:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • Customizable Slope Representation<\/strong>: Define slope gradients using:\n
      \n
    • Percentage<\/strong> (e.g., 25% slope)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • V:H Ratio Notation<\/strong> (e.g., 1:1)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Degrees<\/strong> (e.g., 45\u00b0)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Cut and Fill Slopes<\/strong>:\n
        \n
      • Specify separate cut<\/strong> and fill<\/strong> slopes for accurate terrain modifications.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Ensures correct excavation (cut) and embankment (fill) grading.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Adjust Heights of Grading Pads<\/strong>:\n
          \n
        • Increase<\/strong> above the highest elevation in the selection.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Decrease<\/strong> below the lowest elevation in the selection.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Adjust by a specified height value<\/strong> for precise grading control.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Keep existing elevations unchanged<\/strong>, if no modification is needed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          Benefits<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          • Automates Earthwork Design<\/strong>: Saves time in creating detailed grading plans for landscaping, road design, and site development<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Enhances Accuracy<\/strong>: Provides precise slope adjustments, reducing errors in terrain modeling.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Supports Civil & Architectural Projects<\/strong>: Essential for grading pads, embankments, and cut\/fill operations<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Streamlines Site Planning<\/strong>: Quickly generates design slopes to match real-world construction requirements<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

            With GT_CREATEGRADING<\/strong>, users can design and visualize terrain modifications efficiently<\/strong>, ensuring a smooth transition between existing and proposed ground surfaces<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
