I would do this the same way as Adam with a revision or two. I would
start with the underground wall at the proper full depth and then
edit it using the detailed edit mode. I would replace the
underground walls with the exterior walls because I think it's a
little easier than messing with underground heat-transfer, etc.<br>

know if this is the best method or not, but when I
run into this problem I change the wall
constructions and attributes in the detailed edit
mode. I will model the building with no
underground walls, then in the detailed mode I
will delete the walls that need to be underground
and just replace them with underground walls. Hope
this helps!</span></div>
