In our office we are working on a apartment project and we are just about done with DD's and now we get a fax from the client giving us the correct site info and it turns out the site slopes a lot more than previously indicated and in order to accommodate our buildings we are going to have to jog (or drop down) half of the building 2'. So my question to you all is, what is the most efficient way to do this? Or is it even possible to do this?

Thanks,

You'll need a new set of levels of course (both tops and bottoms.).

The simplest way I've found is to cut the objects out of the first plan, move to the new base level and paste the objects to that level. You'll have some clean - up work to do of course and you may have to do a portion of the project at a time.

Hey thanks Aaron, I was thinking the something along those lines but just was not sure if was the way everyone else was doing it.

Thanks,
