Active & Passive triangles

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

Upon initial model creation all triangles representing the surface will be "active" and used in subsequent outputs. In many cases the site boundary will have "concave" conditions and the triangles covering these areas should not be used for subsequent contouring, section and volume calculations etc. and need to be made "passive".
