Pad references wrong topology

I have an excavation topology created in one Phase. When I add a pad that is created in this phase the pad connects its side walls to the final finished topology which is created in the New Construction Phase. 

I highlighted the line in red where the side walls connect to the New Construction Phase, which is not being displayed. 

I want to see the side walls to connect to the topology of the excavation phase (makes no sense otherwise) also to calculate the correct cut&fill.

I don't understand. A Building Pad requires a host Toposurface. A Building Pad is a model element which, as all model elements in Revit, has a Phase Created and Phase Demolished condition.  What is the problem?    

 

...by the way, have you create a Graded Region Copy of the Existing Toposurface? And, are you hosting Building Pads to the Graded Region Copy?

I'll try to explain a little more:

I have three phases in my model: existing, excavation and new
construction. I'll refer to them as phase 1,2 and 3. Each of them have a
toposurface.

I graded the excavation (phase 2) and the new construction (phase 3)
surface from the existing topo (Phase 1). I used pads in both of them.

When I now wanted to add a new pad in Phase 2 the side walls of the pad
connect to the toposurface's geometry in phase 3 and there wont be a
hole in the phase 2 topo. The hole will be in phase 3. The pad is
created in phase 2 though. The screenshot I posted shows what it looks
like in the phase 2 view.

I hope this all makes sense.

Can you split the topo to different Revit link? That way you don't get mix up with different building pad. I notice Revit tends to confuse which topo to host pad on. 99% of the time it will lead to the wrong one. Splinting them up actually help reduce Revit confusion.

I tried to split the topo but then the existing pads got referenced to a topo of the next phase. My butcher's solution was to build the topo with its pads in a separate empty project file and the paste the topo with its pads into the project in the right phase. If you paste everything together, the topo together its pads, revit keeps the host relationships. Unfortunately, if you start changing things the confusion returns.

Are you using the workflow I showed in the Screencast I posted above?
