Curves Intersecting a Surface

Hi All! I am trying to use the curves contained within a rectangle for structural analysis. See below:

I am using the SCX module (intersection between surface and curves). The problem is: sometimes the function misses a line (see above). Is there a better way to do this seeing as how what I'm doing doesn't always work?

have you tried it out with project?

Thanks for the reply! Although I am sure this would be easy, I am so inexperienced with surfaces.... I'm not really sure how to do that.

there is a component called project, It projects curves onto a brep.

If only I understood BREP. I have a surface here. Have you looked at the attached file?

brep = surface or  polysurface. so surface works as brep. plug your curves and your surface (brep) into project
