By clicking the Infrakit logo on the left-top corner of the page, the user will be directed to the Infrakit starting page.
2. Add a New Task ^
To create a new task, the user must insert a name for the task in the "Name" bar. This name will represent the task in Infrakit.
From the "Folder" drop-down bar, the user can select the folder where the task will be created.
The user can select from four different types of tasks: Model based mass calculation, Alignment based calculation, Grid based calculation, and Simple task.
By checking the "Create Schedule item automatically" box, the user can determine if a schedule item will be automatically created in the "Schedule" page. If the box is checked, in the "Start date (dd.mm.yyyy)" bar, the user can define the starting date for the task. In the "Duration (workdays) bar, the user can define the duration of the task, and based on this, the end date will be automatically calculated. In the "End date (dd.mm.yyyy)" bar, the user can define the end date for the task, and based on this date, the duration will be automatically calculated.
The user must click the "Create" button at the end to complete the creation.
Model-Based Mass Calculation ^

In the "Left limit" bar, the user can define the distance that will be included in the calculations on the left side of the selected alignment. For example, -10 designates that 10 meters on the left side of the alignment will be included in the calculations. If the inserted value is positive, the distance is measured on the right side of the selected alignment.
In the "Right limit" bar, the user can define the distance that will be included in the calculations on the right side of the selected alignment. For example, 10 designates that 10 meters on the right side of the alignment will be included in the calculations. If the inserted value is negative, the distance is measured on the left side of the selected alignment.
In the "Check Completion Threshold" bar, the user can determine how many log points must be inserted in each interval to be marked as completed.
When the calculation is finished, a table will be generated under the box, which includes area and volume values. Each row in the table represents a station that has been generated based on the interval value inserted by the user.
By checking and unchecking boxes next to an attribute, the user can determine which columns will be visible in the table.
