Amending the borehole The Workbook s Drawing Board displays two soil columns one on each side of the wall ReWaRD s Construction Wizard has placed Borehole 1 which currently contains Layer 1 in both of these soil columns By adding Layers 2 to 5 to Borehole 1 you will get the same soil columns on both sides of the wall not only in Stage 4 but in all the stages where Borehole 1 is used To demonstrate this select Layers 2 to 5 in turn and drag them onto the Workbook s Drawing Board for Stage 4 To drag a layer click on its name in the 50 ReWaRD 2 5 User Manual Stockyard s Existing Objects pane hold the mouse button down and then move the mouse pointer across to the Workbook The cursor will change shape from as you do this When you let go of the mouse button the layer being dropped is added at the bottom of the borehole so it is important that you do this in the right order Be careful not to drop the layer onto or above either of the soil columns since that will insert the layer into the appropriate borehole rather than append the layer at the bottom of the borehole If you drop the layers on the middle of the Drawing Board they automatically appear at the bottom of the borehole If you make a mistake you can drag a layer out of the borehole and return it to the Stockyard in the same way ReWaRD 2 5 Professional Edition BIS x File Edit View Properties Calculate Design Tools Window Help eral del 3
