Point Slope Staking
Stakeout Point Slope Staking .
The Point Slope Staking routine is a simplified version of the Slope
Staking routine described on Page R-293.
The Point Slope Staking routine determines
the location of the catch point from a known
hinge point and a specified horizontal direction
from the hinge point, whereas the Slope
Staking routine determines the location of the
catch point from a perpendicular offset to a
known centerline at a specified station.
The first screen is used to specify the hinge
point and horizontal direction from the hinge
point to the catch point.
From Point : is the hinge point.
Point / Direction : is either another point that lies in the same
vertical plane as the hinge point and catch point, or the azimuth from
the hinge point to the catch point, respectively.
Fill Slope: is the desired slope, calculated from run over rise, between
the hinge point and catch point when the area requires a fill.
Cut Slope: is the desired slope, calculated from run over rise,
between the hinge point and catch point when the area requires a cut.
Height of Rod: is the rod height.
Backsight… : opens the Backsight Setup screen.
Stake CP > : opens the next screen.
