Workflow Processes:

Optimize Parking Layout and Grading

This Process steps through common tasks that you can reference to optimize open space grading for parking areas, driveways, and building pads.
The Site tools in Bentley’s Open Designer products use design criteria to layout and grade common site features so you can quickly arrive at a cost effective solution, requiring minimal effort. Using the Grading Solver, design features are manipulated within the constraints of the design criteria to produce a collective grading solution that closely balances cut and fill earthwork quantities. Upon validating the automated grading solution, detailed terrains can be produced by simply moving the features into the Preliminary and FInal design phases. In the final design phase terrains are created from mesh elements and linear features. In final design, further grading can be added and composite terrains created.
