#### 2.1.14.8. Node-based Thicknesses

By default, the solid model extrusion consumes the ply thicknesses at the element center and evaluates the average ply thickness per node. If the Use Nodal Thickness is on, the solid model extrusion can directly consume the node-based thicknesses, which can improve the accuracy. For more information, see Element- vs. Node-based Thicknesses.
