The dsh Terrain Building Test

[dshall]

This is a three part test. You are to recreate the model pictured below

Part 1: Build a 20X30 house.... easy peasy
Part 2: Determine the ELEVATION OF THE TERRAIN PERIMETER
you can use Doug Park average ht. method (this comes from this thread http://www.chieftalk.com/showthread....799#post423799)

The average is the average height of the terrain. A terrain may not be flat so in general this gets the terrain in the ball park. I would recommend setting the height manually for precise control.

Part 3: Build the terrain as pictured below. Note the terrain contour callouts are automatic, that is part of the test.

I am curious as to what everybody set there TERRAIN ELEVATION at.
