Hi Jimmy,

Thanks for your question.

For this type of base material, we recommend using the concrete module on Profis Engineering, as the Masonry module only considers bricks or hollow elements.

I have attached our Engineering Advice document that provides more guidance on this topic, and one of our Field Engineers will contact you to provide specific support for your need.

Thanks once again for reaching out to us.

Kind Regards,
