This nifty stacked Code Set Style trick works with any subassembly that includes multiple stacked Link codes assigned in the Subassembly.
It is also possible to employ levels of screened printing to both the hatch and the background fill in both STB and CTB with some planning.
Remember that Civil 3D includes the important Generic Pavement Structure (GPS) subassemblies which allow us the considerable liberty to assign custom Code names and other details inside the sub.

Doug handles loads of useful, interesting, and interactive Q&A about Civil 3D Property Sets in this video.
It helps to remember that Property Sets et al are a special form of data Style in Civil 3D.
Since this always comes up...
Dynamo and Dynamo Player scripts are a great way to automate lots of Property Set creation, maintenance, and production data mechanics in Civil 3D.
Use Dynamo to significantly reduce the amount of manual Property Set user work in your production processes.
