site model question (stairs/ramps next to retaining walls)

[DDD]

Hi, I am having questions about site modeling, please see attached file (2023 Landmark)

 

-my goal is to model as below:

 

 

-I modeled the retaining walls and pads on one side, it goes well.

 

 

-But when I mirror the pads to the other side, the model is messed up, any thing I did wrong?

 

 

Thanks in advance!

@DDD How about changing the modifiers for your cheekwalls to retaining modifiers, deleting your riser/retaining modifiers, adding tread/pad modifiers?

Attached is an example.

@jeff prince You are the legend, I never thought about this solution. Thank you so much!

Happy to help.
FYI - I typically just do a single retaining modifier to carve out the whole area for a stair set and cheek walks on small landscape sets like these.  It makes it faster to edit the modifier if your stair pitch or position needs to change 🙂
