Hi daniloraf,
I am happy to see that someone is verifying our numbers. Such kind of discussions are very productive, and it gives more confidence in what we are doing. Just to explain one more time how this “joint project” is working: In the beginning we started with version 1 simulation, not having all parameters available. Well, you have to start somewhere, right?
Then during the last month many people challenged the data and when somebody brought convincing arguments to change the data points or if the majority disagreed just like in a domacary , I upgraded these values in the next version. So now we are at version 5 and frankly speaking it is getting harder and harder to find something that does not add up in this drawing. Maybe you can give your personal input and if convincing I will integrate your findings into version 6.
As for your questions:
a) Ground levels: We have been provided very accurate Topographical Maps coming from LAND ID (thank you LAND ID for providing!) I recommend to you to take the 10 Min crash course and to follow the instructions as described and please read all the way to the end:
In the meantime, our floor levels have been reconfirmed in a completely different approach, namely from Gary’s video using a high accuracy drone. We are perfectly matched! So, I think it is with confidence that we can say our floor levels are accurate. Here is the Post about Gary’s video and the confirmation of the floor levels:
b) Wooden blocks: We have been very conservative with our 1 inch “pre-load” or leveling height, giving Crooks the benefit of the doubt. As you can see in this Post:
The bleachers are not set on wooden raiser blocks, rather they are used to level out the bleachers when setting up. However, they do crank the stage up to stabilize it. (see the YouTube video in that post) Therefore our 1 Inch increase in height is very conservative. If we were 2 or more inches, the trajectory would even go lower towards Crooks, making it even more difficult to find a path to Crooks.
c) Extra elevations: Yes, everything is clearly indicated in the drawing as per these screen shots.
So, I think I was able to answer all your questions. Maybe if something is not clear, just use my ref. numbers. I do agree with your absolute values indicated in your Excel sheet. I will add this information in Version 6 in the next drawing:
Now I have a question to you: What is the meaning of extra 1 in yellow in your Excel file: 2,185 (Trumps ear) and 1,17 (Bleachers)? This does not make scence to me…
