Thanks for the explanation. One way could be select all the surface exculding one face and copy paste. Later on copy paste the excluded face, this way you will have 2 surfaces instead of many after detach all operations. Now provide the thickness value to the surfaces.

You can set selection filter to faces, box-select all the faces, press ctrl and deselect one face.

 Are you going to perform simulation in Discovery or flagship tools? What type of simulation are you going to perform?Â
