Retaining Walls

You can insert "peaks" into walls along the top and bottom edges. Select the wall and the 3-D reshape tool. Click on the + icon in the mode bar, and then drag from either end of the bottom of the wall or from an existing peak to add a new one.

Interesting question. Could you you actually build a wall like that? My structural guys tell me that footings need to be place on a (more or less) flat surface, and then stepped...

I think you could draw it that way using either the 3d reshape tool on the bottom of the wall (like an upside down gable) or if you have 11, you could use the "fit walls to roof" command (which will also work on the bottom of walls).

Have Fun!
