Autocad 2006+ earth works
(OP)
Does anyone know if you can compute earth work volumes using autocad 2006. I have just completed a survey of soil and muck shift. Can i compute the amount of muck taken off site using Autocad.? I know i can compute areas, but not sure about volume for something like this.

Could you explain you did it.

In my case, once I had my profiles at my station numbers, I created prismatic volumes with the 3D commands. These prismatic volumes were for material to be excavated and for fill. Then invoke the INQUIRY>MASS PROPERTIES of the 3D prismatic volumes.
I also did such prismatic volumes to determine amount of fill for AST's earthen dikes and dike volumes.
