If a surface does not have a Landscape Material then the 3D Grass will not be drawn to that area.

Amend the model and subdivide the area in to two or more, so that when Reloaded you do not make that surface a Landscape Material.

Thanks for the answer.
But the problem is the patio is lower than the grass (3' under ground) ans I can't mask the grass at an upper lever, over the patio. Is it possible to 'cut' a part of the grass or to make this part transparent?

Push the terrain below the level of the patio.

Pushing the terrain below 0 height where buildings have lower levels/basements is always needed if the camera is in view of lower regions.  And, then you include a landscape surface that is set to Landscape Material to hide any indents/lowered parts of the terrain.

As the terrain is below the height of the patio surface, and that surface is not a Landscape Material, then no grass is drawn on it.

(excuse my bad SkUp modelling)
