Question

How can i remove the fill volume under a proposed bridge?

eddiegiese · Answer

For the bridge elements, use a Feature Definition that is set to a Volume Option of None and it will be ignored during earthwork runs. Milling works in a similar manner, such that you are not quantifying cut of existing in those locations, because that is typically paid as its own item.

you can add an overlay component to the bridge deck bottom. Top of Overlay to follow component, Bottom of Overlay to follow Existing Terrain. Be sure that Overlay Componts has a feature definition with a volume option set to Design. Then with this solution the void under the bridge will be filled with "dummy" design material and no Fill will be there. Neither in dynamic cross-section nor generated with Create Cut Fill Volumes tool.
