    Thanks :) with the Opening Tool, can add multiple even overlapping to get different levels. Though for now, can only be rectangular and circular (and ovals).

    Hi James, with the second option using the opening tool, Is it then possible to calculate the volume of the removed area. i.e. volume of ground excavated for building platform

    Volume is calculated from the model, so if you need the before SEO you'll need a copy of the mesh without the SEO

    Mesh is symbolic, so it's quick. You'd need to have it projected, one method you can use is the 3D Document from Floor Plan - helpcenter.graphisoft.com/user-guide/137249/
