To model an Embankment manually:

•Define a String along the embankment upstream or downstream crest

•Define an offset string for the opposite crest

•Interpolate Nodes along each of the embankment crest strings

•Generate toe points from each of the embankment crest strings to the Base Surface

•Triangulate the nodes to generate a the Embankment

•If necessary:

oAudit and delete narrow boundary elements

oSwap element diagonals and/or define break lines to constrain the triangulation
