Use surface utilities to query composite and bounded volume differences between surface.
Composite volumes use top and bottom surfaces (a surface pair) to establish cut, fill, and net volume values. Bounded volumes use an existing AutoCAD object (for example, a polyline or polygon) to calculate the cut, fill, and net volume for the area bounded by the object.
