QUESTION
What is the easiest way that I can add a retaining wall to my terrain?
ANSWER
Use the Retaining Wall tool to easily place retaining walls in your terrain. Retaining walls are automatically drawn with footings and a terrain break, which creates a sharp drop in the terrain along the wall.
To create a retaining wall
-
Open the plan in which you would like to add a retaining wall.
- Navigate to Terrain> Terrain Wall and Curb> Straight Retaining Wall .
- When the Straight Retaining Wall tool is active, your cursor will turn into a cross and you can click and drag to create a retaining wall in the terrain.
- Once the retaining wall has been created, select Terrain> Build Terrain to apply the changes to your terrain.
- Lastly, select 3D> Create Perspective View> Perspective Full Overview to see the retaining wall in a camera view.
