It already has some predefined profile section blocks but you can also use your own custom or standardized blocks.

Section extrusion block
[Extrude to VS extents] – Creates a 3D solid by extruding selected profile section to the ViewSection extents.
[Extrude] – Creates a 3D solid by extruding selected profile section.
[Rectangular Section] – Inserts a rectangular profile section block.
[I Section]
– Inserts I profile section block.
[O Section]
– Inserts O profile section block.
[L Section]
– Inserts L profile section block.
