I've been having some struggles getting a building pad onto this topo surface. the pad shows up fine, but it is not cutting through the topo. it is just drawing the pad and wall extending all the way up past the top of the roof. the topo is on the same workset, and the same phase as the building pad. the topo is cutting right through the building and showing up inside of the walls. (see the attached image) any ideas?

I think you should check two things; 1-. Your pad should be at the same level as your first floor (basement floor in your case?) 2-. Your pad should have a thickness like 6" or 12" (or 24" if you want to) but not 24 feet! Something I don't understand; your pad doesn't seem to have the same profile (or near to) as your first floor. Unless that, your pad will always looks strange in your design. Personnaly, I prefer to adjust my pad with the outline of the foundation wall.

I just threw that pad in really quick so i could PDF this and post it on here, it gives the same result if i trace the outline of the building. and i have tried from 2" all the way up to 2' and it still gives me the same result. the pad is at the basement level, what you are seeing in this picture are topo walls that the pad creates along the border for some reason. but if i cut a section throught the building, the pad shows up in the right place, but it still show the site topo in the middle of the building Post edited on 2006-08-14 17:43:44

Thats actually a good thought, but yes i have checked it. im starting to think it has something to do with this project being created originally in Revit 8.0. the client just put it on hold for a while and now he is wanting it done. i may call Autodesk tech support
