Create a Design
Login to WorksManager with your Trimble Identity (TID) credentials.
Create or select a project.
In the left pane, click Designs > click + Add
Type a unique name in the Design Name field.
Select type as either Machine Control or Data Collectors.
Click + next to each of these to add files:
Surface (.ttm for Siteworks) (.xml, .vcl, .dsz, .svd for Earthworks) (.vcl for Groundworks) - Add this file to include a surface model for staking and checks, or grading and excavation. If the surface is clipped by a boundary, all breaklines in it will appear as unnamed features when the surface is viewed in Siteworks. If the surface does not contain a clipping boundary, the breakline names will appear in Siteworks.
Linework (.dxf or .dwg for Siteworks) (.xml, .vcl, .dsz, .svl for Earthworks) (.vcl for Groundworks) - Add this file to include 2D or 3D background or design lines for field crews to use as visual references for navigating and staking out points, features, alignments, or surfaces on site.
Note: This type cannot be selected if the design is for Siteworks.
Stakeout Points (.csv) - Add this file to include points used on site controllers by crews in the field to stake out features at the job site.
Corridor (.pro) - Add this file to include a corridor model, defined by an alignment and roadway surface, so crews in the field can perform grading, checks, and other operations, and machines can do excavation and grading operations.
Note: If you try to add both a .ttm surface and a .pro corridor surface, you will receive an error message. You can include one or the other.
