Creating a Sub Region

The sub region command is certain surfaces on the terrain that fit the terrain slope. In the architectural project design, surfaces that want to define different materials such as walkways and paths are created as sub-regions.

Location of the Sub Region Command

In the Architectural Program

You can access it under the ribbon menu Home tab Terrain title.

In Structural Program

You can access it under the ribbon menu Objects tab Terrain title.

Usage Steps

  • Click the Sub Region icon in the ribbon menu .

  • Next to the terrain toolbar, another toolbar named Path Segments will appear on the screen .

  • The Path Segments toolbar contains icons for drawing straight, circular and curved contours. These icons are used according to the needs while defining the sub region.

  • Move the mouse over the terrain you defined earlier.

  • Click on the corners of the sub region element in the drawing screen.

  • The process will be completed when you define the contour and reach the point where you started.

Nodes

The coordinates of the elevation points placed are given. It is not intervened.

Color

Line style

The line type of the sub region line in the plan is selected. Clicking the down arrow buttons to the right of the boxes opens the list of line types. From this list, the desired line type is selected by clicking with the left mouse button.

Material

Angle

The angle of the texture is given. With the angle value, you can adjust the angle of the texture according to the direction of its plane.

Elevation

Elevation is given to the sub region.

Excavation step

Terrain and pieces of terrain are given numbers for excavation calculations. The excavations of the terrain and terrain plots with the same number are calculated and shown as total value at once, and the excavation of the terrain or terrain plots that are numbered separately as a separate item
