Average Difference Between Profiles

Here’s a quick post on how to get information from Civil 3D into Excel to determine the difference between two profiles for an alignment.

• First run the Incremental Station Elevation Difference Report from the Toolbox.
• Next copy all from the HTML document and then paste into Excel (you can change the default output location to Excel rather than HTML, do a Google search and you should be able to find how to do this)
• Paste the information into Excel.
• Do a search and replace for the ‘ mark to have the text number to be numbers.
