There will be a section of the terrain that will be cut and then there will be a fill placed on top of that. I&amp;#39;m trying to figure out what tools to use to achieve this.

Is it being done is a separate phase?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I believe there are ways to calculate materials volumes separately, but I don&amp;#39;t know a lot about that, or ORD earthwork in general. You may be able to search these forums for &amp;quot;unsuitable material&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;benching&amp;quot; to see if anything there might apply to what you want to do.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You could certainly create a corridor for your excavation, and generate a terrain from that. Then you would create a complex terrain from your existing ground and your excavation terrain, which you could use as the target for your finished construction.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Excavation cut and fill quantities using templates</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/760648?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 04 Apr 2023 19:32:26 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:1a1c0f35-8a14-48ed-8385-2420d50faa46</guid><dc:creator>Christian Orr</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="max-height:240px;max-width:320px;" src="/resized-image/__size/640x480/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/5922/pastedimage1680634148451v1.png" alt=" " /&gt;I am thinking that I&amp;#39;ll need to do 2 individual passes and calculate the quantities of the cut and fill.
