C3D 2024 - Calculate surface areas
Accepted solution
Civil3d's / any civil software's TIN Algorithm does not support a surface created with two points sharing x,y and different z. No pure vertical face. you wall is pure vertical. Plus I think the solids need to be converted to faces

As Joe mentioned, Civil3D is no help on this type of geometry. However, you should be able to explode your 3dSolids and then do a CAD DATAEXTRACTION on the REGION objects to determine the area of each, doing further calculations in a spreadsheet.
