Tetrahedrons tab

Menu: Civil / Start / Surfaces / Tetrahedrons

The Tetrahedrons Tab in VisionLidar’s Civil Module provides tools for managing, filtering, and analyzing the tetrahedrons that form the solid model of a surface. While similar to the Triangles Tab, this interface includes additional volume calculation capabilities and displays the triangles forming each tetrahedron for reference.

1. Understanding the Tetrahedrons Tab

✔ Manages the Tetrahedrons that Form the Surface

• Tetrahedrons are 3D volumetric elements composed of four triangular faces.

• This tab allows filtering, erasing, redrawing, and analyzing tetrahedrons.

✔ Differences from the Triangles Tab

• Displays tetrahedrons instead of triangles, including their forming triangles.

• Includes a volume calculation tool, which is not present in other tabs.

✔ Primarily Used in the Solids Section

• Tetrahedrons are usually managed in Menu: Civil / Solids.

• However, if a solid is transferred to the surfaces, this tab remains available.

2. Best Practices for Tetrahedron Management

✔ Use filters to display only relevant tetrahedrons before modifying or deleting them.
✔ Hide coordinates when working with large datasets to improve visibility.
✔ Perform volume calculations to analyze specific areas within the model.
✔ Erase and redraw tetrahedrons to test different modeling techniques.
✔ Delete unnecessary tetrahedrons to refine the 3D representation.
