                   Two  Surfaces will be created as shown below. Click on one  Surface from the
                     Structure Tree, and enter  4 for the  Midsurface Thickness in the lower left
                     Properties panel. Repeat the same steps for the other surface.































                   To check surface normal directions, click the Normal icon in the Quality group
                     on the Measure tab. Ctrl-click the two surfaces in Graphics Window. The
                     surface normal direction at the point where you click will be displayed. The
                     inward pointing arrows shown below indicate incorrect surface normals.
