Seeking someone to train some of the staff on using Kubla Cubed.

Hi,

I'm struggling to add Lidar information to my original take off from PDF.

The issue I have is that the original PDF's worked from were not aligned to Eastings and Northings and were automatically zero located.

I have input all of the existing and proposed levels to gve me cut and fill for all of the components I would need.

However, a Lidar survey has been taken of the site that gives a post demolition survey.
The idea would be to introduce this after the existing topo and before the proposed levels.

The issue I am finding is that when trying to add this into my scheme it locates to it's Eastings and Northings and I can't find a way to merge and integrate this information.
The Lidar post demo survey would efectively replace the existing topo and adjust the proposed cut and flll accordingly.

Suggestions on a post card, please....

Hello,

While measuring stockpiles, Kubla doesn't always give me the option to manually select outline using ground levels. Can someone please let me know if I'm doing something wrong?

Thanks for your help.

Has anyone experienced regular crashes in Kubla CUbed 2024?
I've found this often happens if a project has been left open while I do work on other software for some time or the PC goes into standby and then opens back up again.
The Kubla software then appears to lock up and simply close down completly .

I would like to suggest a possible new feature to Kubla Cubed.
Something to allow creation of notes / assumptions taken in preparation for levels where the drawn information is not sufficiently clear.
Could these be added as a text object on the drawing and expanded / hovered over to show more detail?
Notes could then be referred back to at a later date if questions arise.

I would like to create a third layer in a drawing. The drawing already includes existing elevations and new projected elevations. There are also samples taken that show at different levels how deep you can dig before hitting bedrock.

Is it possible to create a model that shows how deep I can dig at specific points before hitting bedrock and load this data into a machine model?

Howdy,

Is there a feature where you can add a modifier to the cut / fill?
I use an expansion of 1.2 on cut and compaction of 1.4 to fill. I have to pay/transport by loose yards and have to do the math all the time from the Cut & Fill report.

Thank you

Howdy,

I frequently have to determine outlines based on being larger than a design structure. Examples are a building pad needing to be 5' larger than the building on the plan, or a parking lot excavation needing to be a foot larger than the defined parking structure.  Is there an easy way to do this?

Currently, I add measurements all over the place from the designed structure to whatever outline I need. It just takes more time/tedious than I'd like so I'm hoping for a clever solution.

Thanks in advance!

Whenever I generate a CAD file from a Kubla project and it doesn't matter if its just from the existing base or from several levels, I always end up with multiple lines of the same contour line, which gives me significant issues with the CAD software I use.  I've tried using OVERKILL on AutoCAD to remove redundant lines but this doesn't seem to work.

Anyone have any tips for generating contour lines with a single line rather than several?

Thanks!

I have a 3d cad file which I have imported and all the levels have come through perfectly to give a 3d model of the site in Kubla Cubed.
The dwg file covers an area which I need to split into 3 separate sites so that quantities can be worked out separately for each site.

I have tried to crop the dwg file but after doing so, the 3d model still appears and I only want to see part of it for each site.
Is it possible to crop to just the area of the file that I need?

Screen shot included to show the area needed for 1 isolated part of the site.
The remaining area will form part of another project so this will need cropping too
