I normally don't use the Terrain object... I find it very...uh...unpredictable. I've using another approach for a few years now. I create the base mesh using the simple curves I get from CAD. Then, with the basic heights extruded, I simply lay a cloth object (reactor or cloth) on top of it and wait until it conforms to the base mesh. It's quite easy and I always get a nice, clean quad mesh in the end.
