| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Materials and Finishes | |
| Material | Select the surface material from the list. You can create your own toposurface material. Topographical surfaces do not support materials with surface patterns. See Materials. |
| Dimensions | |
| Projected Area | The 2-dimensional area of a surface when it is projected onto a flat plane, for example, as though viewed from above.
![]() The projected area omits additional surface area caused by inclines and other 3D aspects of the surface. You can include Projected Area in schedules. This is a read-only value. |
| Surface Area | The total area of the topography, including additional surface area caused by inclines and 3D aspects of the surface.
![]() You can include Surface Area in schedules. This is a read-only value. |
| Identity Data | |
| Comments | User-defined comments about the toposurface, which can display in schedules. |
| Name | The name of the toposurface, which can display in schedules. |
| Mark | A unique identifier you can assign. |
| Phasing | |
| Phase Created | The phase when the toposurface is created. |
| Phase Demolished | The phase when the toposurface is demolished. |
