display of walls etc on sloping site

Anonymous
Not applicable
I am working on a steeply sloping site where doors open onto grade at 3 levels (basement, 1st, and 2nd floors). I want to generate a SITE PLAN that displays walls at the level they open onto grade.

Wall 'A' - Garage door at basement level to display, not the windows in upper levels.

Wall 'B' - Basement level of wall just holding back dirt, I want the site plan to display the doors opening onto 1st.

Wall 'C' - Bottom of wall at second floor and I want site plan to show doors opening onto second floor grades.

Naturally, I want FLOOR PLANS to display elements of each level, not mixing it up like the site plan.

Your best bet is probably to create a view for each level that you want, and then to overlay them in the Layout. Stepped FPCP (Floor Plan Cut Plane) are still in the future ...
