How to add stone planters...

Ali and Tad 040422 A.planI have used 'CAD Draw Box' command to represent Four Planters I'd like to add to my plan.  This deck plan is for my kid's house in the Austin, Texas area where a popular building material there is Limestone block.  Using 'Suite', is there a way I can add these planters, so they show up as block, and in 3D view?  From my top deck floor elevation, the top elevation of the planters would be at minus 16", two at -48", and the smallest and darkest one at -80".  I'd like to end up with the planter walls adjacent to decks, for those block walls to extend up to the bottom of deck framing.

Thank you, Eric. 

 

Should I be able to use the Build Foundation function in any way, so I'd have the footings also?  I think I understand correctly that I wouldn't be able to slide the foundation wall under the edge of my deck?

 

Would this be any easier with Architectural or Professional?

Maybe, but I would use solids, like a soffit to represent the footing.

Everything is easier as you have more tools to work with, especially with Pro.
