Dimension

Depth
Specifies the total depth of the trench feature including the footing thickness.
Width
Specifies the total width of the trench feature including the thickness of the walls.
Perimeter
Specifies the perimeter of the cross-section.
Composition
Material
Specifies the material used for the trench or a trench part, such as the walls, slab, or footing. You cannot vary wall and footing material from feature to feature. However, you can change the material properties so that identical properties are applied to all features under that trench run.
Material Grade
Specifies the material grade used for the trench or a trench part, such as the walls, slab, or footing. The number of sets of material and material grade is dependent on the selected cross-section shape.
