CHAPTER 2 "MODELLING" 118 6.2.4 3D surfaces Select one of the proposed 3D surfaces (e.g. the pool) and enter its geometric characteristics based on the design. In case of paving, activate the checkbox and enter the value of the spring constant Ks (MPa/cm). The values "Width" and "Thickness" refer to the dimensions of the surface that will simulate the specific surface (Note: the density is taken by default equal to 0,15)* 'Mounting angle' is the angle (in degrees) at which the surface is to be inserted in relation to the total axes, in the XZ plane of the working surface. e.g. for an angle of 30° the surface will be tilted as in the figure: "OK" and the SCADA Pro interface will display the outline of the surface as you have defined it. Within the "Modeling" field select the command "Surface 3D">>"Grid" . In the dialog box within the list of groups, the mesh as defined in the standard constructions is displayed, along with the subgroups. Select the mesh and subgroup in case you want to make changes and " Update ". The command is described in detail in Chapter 2. If no modifications are needed, go directly to the command
