"T Stat" profile type

Parameters for profile section

In the case of T Stat profiles, a transverse profile is generated in the reference element's (section line’s) stationing points. You can also specify a segment. The transverse profiles can be given constant extents or the outline can be adapted to an existing element.

1. Click the element to serve as the basis for the transverse profiles.
2. Place the start point or specify the first station.
   The station always applies from the station origin.
3. Place the end point or specify the last station.
4. Specify the spacing between stations for the reference element. If the reference element has already been stationed, the current stationing is used.
5. Specify the extent of the transverse profiles to the left in one of the following ways:
   • Enter the offset at the keyboard.
   • Click a point. The perpendicular distance from this point to the reference element becomes the extent of the transverse profiles.
   • Click an element. The transverse profiles stretch as far as this element.
6. Specify the extent of the transverse profiles to the right (same as above).

Example

E Offset element

F No farther than the boundary

Note: The transverse profiles generated will not reach beyond the boundary of the DTM.
