Strip Element

The strip element is used to remove a fixed thickness of material from an area of the site. This element is most commonly used for stripping topsoil at the start of a project, and for making subgrade adjustments.

The properties that are exposed for the strip element are summarised below.

  • Depth

    This is the depth of material that you wish to remove from the strip area.

  • Side Batter

    The strip boundary is joined to the ground by side slopes. The side batter (set as a ratio of vertical to horizontal) dictates the angle of these slopes. Turning side batter off will result in the strip being joined to the ground with vertical sides.

  • Definition Points

    These are the points which define the outline of the strip area.
