2. Next, we want to include a raked seating area at the back of the house to
represent bleachers. In the Project Explorer in the venue area click on the green
+ button to create a new surface. The new surface will be displayed with the
default name so we want to change the name to North Rake in the Properties
Pane.
 X, Y, Z - Since the first surface was 200’ in length, set the X origin of the raked
surface to 200’. The Y origin can remain at 0 since we are going to remain
centered. As I did with the main surface, set the Z origin of the raked surface
to 5.5’ just to keep the model consistent.
 Length and Width - Set the length of the raked surface to 75’ and the width
to match that of the main surface at 100’ wide.
 Inclination angle - let’s put in 20 degrees as the inclination angle. Now you
can see the model taking shape.
This completes the raked section of the model so like we did for the main floor
surface, let’s lock it.
