I'm curious if others have had this issue and what they've done to combat it. Or maybe there is something in the program that I'm missing that would better account for the placement of a proposed retaining wall. If the "Path" feature allowed me to set differing elevations on either side of the wall, and also account for proposed contour lines, I feel like it would be a good solution for the problem I'm having here. One thing to note is that I do not have access to CAD files when I'm creating my models, so I'm doing this purely based on the information provided in the plans available for a specific job which are sometimes not the best.

I've attached an example of a job where I was having this issue for folks to review and possibly advise. One factor I am unsure of on this particular job is if there is any sort of reveal on the high side of the retaining wall at any point. Typically I would have to wait to win the bid for the job and obtain a shop drawing from my wall subcontractor before I have specific information on these things.

Currently, the fill batters project through the vertical surface where any spill is identified. 
Ideally, the spill batters should slope down along the rear of the wall at the same defined slope rate.  
See attached model with the intended slope manually modelled using the feature surface tool.

I’m really enjoying using Kubla so far, but I’ve hit a workflow issue and would appreciate some guidance.
The Consultant wants to verify the earthworks quantities using the “old school” method: levels (or heights) at the LHS, Centre Line, and RHS every 5 m along the road corridor.
In Kubla I can see the existing and proposed levels at any point by hovering the mouse, but capturing these one-by-one is very tedious and time-consuming.
Is there a better way to extract this information – for example, generating a report or exporting section data at 5 m intervals – so that I can tabulate it for his checks and certification of quantities for payment?
Any tips, workflows, or documentation links would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
