When placing a building Pad in a Topo. How do I show a batter or angle on the cut/fill?

Pad is different than cut and fill.  If you meant how to slope your pad, their is a slope arrow you can add when you create the pad.

Thanks for your response, no, I didn't mean "slope" or "grade" on the pad surface, I mean the sides of the pad, they are "cut" vertical in the topo, Can they be sloped out 45 deg.

 If "Cut/Fill is different, perhaps that's where I'm going astray, how do I create a cut/fill bench oe building pad in the Topo?

Pads are meant to provide a finished cut for your building only - not an excavation cut.  If you want that, you would have to probably use cut and fill.  This would not be easy and my question is why would you want to.

Site development in Revit is very difficult now. You must use the cut and fill tools which are tricky. I have done some hillside work with them, not impossible but difficult. Also street work is tricky. See attached for a method there are others that will work.
