Fill Block Model Gaps | Option to fill voids in block models with a default material |
Use Infrastructure | Module to account for some critical infrastructure areas such as heritage, environmental and bores. Needs custom Extension scripts. |
Enable Dig Plans | Allow blast solids to be subdivided into dig blocks |
Enable Single Destinations | Force one material type per dig block, for grade control blocks |
Use External Grade Control Data Source | Connect to external grade control database |
Block Model Expand Distance (m) | Visible block models are clipped to the Expand Distance around the current selection |
Maximum Grade Block Overlap (%) | Error threshold for overlaps of imported grade control polygons |
Error Finders field
Volume Threshold (Minimum Volume) | Populates the Error List (in the Designer tab) with warnings for trivial blast volumes. |
|---|---|
Sliver Threshold (Area / Perimeter) | Populates the Error list (in the Designer tab) with warning for boomerang-shaped blasts (batter trims). |
Discard Thresholds field
Minimum Volume (m3) | Filters out solids below the minimum volume. Any solid whose volume is less than the defined value will be discarded. The maximum value is capped to 1000. |
|---|---|
Minimum Area (m3) | Filters out solids below the minimum area |
Sliver Threshold (Area / Perimeter) | Filters out solids below the minimum width |
Sliver Maximum Area Threshold | For Alastri personnel only, field to be left as it is |
Minimum Volume for Export | Filters out solids below the minimum volume |
Hatch Patterns field
In the Hatch Patterns fields select a pattern from dropdown to outline different areas for phase exclusion, blasts or grade control.
Phase Exclusion Hatch | Set a pattern to show outside the polygon in Phase Exclusion Areas step. Area which is outside of the polygon is called “Phase Exclusion Area” |
|---|---|
Invert Phase Exclusions Hatch | Toggle to show the pattern inside the polygon. Area which is inside the polygon is called “Phase Exclusion Area” |
Designer - Editing Blast Hatch | Set a pattern to cover viewport in the Designer tab. Double click on the blast - it should clear pattern for blast selected |
Designer - Grade Control Hatch | Set a pattern to show for the bench selected in the Designer tab when Force Excluded. Pattern should show for grade control flitches |
Designer - Excluded Hatch | Set a pattern for excluded areas |
