You can work in either imperial or metric units and can even switch back and forth between these unit systems. Next, you tell the program which combinations to use for loading trees, for insulator swing checks, for clearance checks, wire tension checks… PLS-CADD will check things your way. You start by defining the combinations of wind, ice, temperature and safety factors you wish to use. PLS-CADD’s engineering functions are very flexible and are easily adapted to conform to your standards. Line route changes are instantly reflected in all views Engineering Standards & Calculations points with the mouse or by clicking on locations where you want to add or delete P.I. When sufficient data are available PLS-CADD can give you an even better perspective using contour lines, color renderings and even draped aerial photographs.Īltering your line route is easily accomplished by dragging P.I. Superposition of planimetric maps and aerial photographs can be used to better visualize the area around your line.
PLS-CADD has a customizable data import routine that can read a wide range of survey data formats. Survey data can be keyed in, can be digitized using the built in heads-up digitizer, or can be electronically imported from a survey data file. It accepts survey data in both the plan and the profile coordinate systems. PLS-CADD easily adapts to the wide range of technologies used for line surveys including total station instruments, airborne lasers and photogrammetry.
