Checking Link Cover
Civil Designer 6.4 allows the user to check the minimum
cover over the length of a link. |
The function allows the designer to test the length of
all the links for minimum cover and to view problem
areas in plan or on a longitudinal section.
Graphical Menu > Check Link cover
The Minimum Link Cover Dialog will open.

Enter the tolerance that must be allowed for when
checking the minimum cover on the links. In the
example above the program will test the sewer links
for minimum cover with a tolerance of 0.3m.
Click on the Check button to start checking the
minimum cover. As a problem with cover is found the
details are displayed on the table as shown below.

In the example above the sewer link from node 053
to node 052 does not comply with the minimum cover
requirements. At chainage 32.126 there is a low point
with only 0.301m cover on the link. To view the cover
problem right click on the row of interest and a menu
with two options will open.

The Show Link option will change the Design Centre
display to position the link with the cover problem on
the centre of the screen as shown in the following
illustration.

The Long Section option will open the Longitudinal
Section Dialog and display a long section of the
branch with the cover problem.
