You can use section view bands to control the location and content of bands in section views.
A data band is an optional graphic frame that is associated with a section view. The data band contains annotations for the section view and the section objects displayed in that section view. Some common annotations include elevation data, offsets, and cut/fill depths.
Bands can be created automatically when you create section views and also added manually to a section view you already created. Use the Section View Properties dialog box.
Section View Band Styles
Use the Toolspace Settings tree to create and edit section view band styles. Specify which styles to use when you create section views. Add labels using the Add Labels dialog box.
Data band labels are label objects that can be manipulated like other Autodesk Civil 3D label objects.
Group a set of commonly used bands into a band set that can be applied to a section view as a single selection.

Band Sets |
Specifies the default set of bands to use (or import) when creating a section view. Also, specifies various properties, such as the gap between bands. |

Section Data |
Specifies the offsets from centerline, distance from centerline, elevations of any section, and the cut/fill depths at major/minor increments and other points of interest along the sample line. Note:
The Offset From Centerline property in Section Data bands is measured perpendicularly to the alignment. The Distance From Centerline property is measured along the sample line. If the sample line is skewed, the Distance From Centerline value will therefore be different than the Offset From Centerline value. If the sample line is perpendicular, then these values will be the same. |
| Section Segment | Specifies section segment band style for each segment (line) of a section object. |
