Create a Building Footprint and Grading in Civil 3D

How to create a building footprint, assign it an elevation, and show the cut/fill grading between the footprint and the existing ground.

One of the best teaching videos I've seen for Civil 3D. As a former CAD instructor and Civil user, I appreciate the speakers concise approach.  No time wasted with jokes and unnecessary info, just a whirlwind tour thru basics of grading. Very nice job!

I want to be able to compare survey level to design level/ datum level. For instance i want to survey a slab and find out what the difference is compared to our design finish level. I will be grateful if you can make a video on this. Keep up the good work!!!

Great stuff, once again it covered everything I needed in just the right amount of detail. I've slung you a coffee using the account above, enjoy.

If I wanted to limit the extent of the grading (resulting in higher slopes for example) due to constraints of nearby structures or whatnot would I use a boundary line to define how far the Proposed surface could extend out to match the Existing surface?
