while this may not help anyone much, here is how we always build our sites. I work for a civil eng. firm. All projects require an "earthworks" 3d model that will show the cut/fill balance. I start with this cut/fill earhworks model and bring the model into max after i've turned it into a mesh. If you're working on something that an engineer is involved in the just request the earthworks model. It's about as accurate as you need.
