Data formats

VOLUMETRICS

All common ground engineering survey data formats including DWG, Genio, Lidar, PDF and Civil 3D

Dynamic model updates

VOLUMETRICS

Digital civil design model and associated outputs are linked and dynamically respond to reflect design changes

Cut & fill

VOLUMETRICS

Automate the calculation of cut and fill quantities and construction build-ups with automatic generation of formation models

Surface design

VOLUMETRICS

Tools for the design of any level or sloping surface show the effects of the proposed design on drainage and earthworks volumes

Borehole modelling

VOLUMETRICS

Modelling the surface is not sufficient in many instances, so it is a requirement to understand what is happening in sub-surface strata

3D visualisation

VOLUMETRICS

Original terrain, proposed designs or a combination are quickly visualised to display zones of visual impact and communicate ideas

Volumetrics |
BIM Infrastructure Design

PDS Volumetrics civil engineering software is a dynamic digital modelling module that forms the basis of the PDS suite.

Causeway Volumetrics ground engineering software allows users to model existing topographical, sub surface, and proposed surfaces, and analyse the impact on earthworks volumes in civil design projects.
