Check 3d geometries

Hi Guys,

I am relatively new to ESRI and am trying to find a good way to check the integrity of 3d geometries. I am doing so as part of a QA process for 3d models (.3ds) produced by someone other than myself. I have the models stored as a multipatch within a geodatabase and each individual model represents a building or structure within a city.

One thing in particular I'd like to check for is reverse faces, i.e. the external face of the model may be pointed inwards...can be tested using the normal.

I have noticed the "Check Geometry" tool but this appears to be intended for 2D geometries. Can anyone shed light on this? Does anyone know of a tool or method to validate the integrity of 3D geometries?

Maybe there is an alternative software that is more suited to this type of check?

Cheers, James
