In AM, only the top surface is engineered, while the side surface is the result of making the top surface. The bottom surface is the result of how it is detached from a substrate if it was attached, or the bottom surface is the result of the condition of the platform surface if it was not attached. Though if side surfaces are given attention, they improve. It happens by usual methods (parameter optimization, orientation changing) only by applying the methods on the top surface. It gives no guarantee that the top surface and side surfaces will have the same quality (roughness, planarity, etc.). As the basic requirement of AM—whenever the top surface is made, the side surface results do not change. As the state of a surface depends upon its orientation with the build direction, there are artifacts comprising surfaces at various orientations to determine the surface quality at various orientations.
