Training video: Understanding cut/fill in the Platform

Inside our measurement templates, you’ll find the cut/fill analysis tool. Simply put, cut is the material you move out of an area, and fill is the material you bring in.

When you’re looking at your 3D model, think of it this way: cut is any material sitting above your desired elevation, and fill is the space that needs to be built up to reach it.
