You could use Solid Element Operations, but it will require you to model a shape to use as a cutting form. Note that this will only work in section/3D, not in plan.

The only way to make it show up in plan is to actually make different wall types, which really stinks.

It is really pretty easy to duplicate the composite and change it, and does the job. You can easily split a wall, if necessary, and syringe the new composite to the area where it is needed. Much quicker than messing with Solid Element Operations, and if you are now, or ever will, need to run calculation (material list) you have the proper composite to key in.
It's really very easy, and once you build a good composite "library" you have it. You can always use the Attribute Manager" to apply elsewhere.
