How to exclude existing house framing from an addition framing schedule.
DRAWZILLA replied to MCCCcc's topic in General Q & A
change your existing house framing wall layer, in all existing walls, in the wall DBX to air gap and not framing. in all new walls leave the framing in. -
Battered walls is just something Chief does not do yet, you can add p-solids to get the look but in my opinion it's just too much trouble and extra time to do so I stay away from those projects.

try opening the text style to adjust it, if you haven't already done so.
-
check your text style setting in the correct layer those fixtures are on.

How do I display the sqft total coverage of a driveway object?
DRAWZILLA replied to cbucks's topic in General Q & A
Add the area macro to the label of the driveway and make sure polyline labels are turned on -
Another reason might be a loss of room definition specifically an exterior wall. Make sure all walls are connected properly.

Can auto roof on top plate above ceiling joists be done?
DRAWZILLA replied to CARMELHILL's topic in General Q & A
yes just set your roof planes as high as you need them the studs above the ceil. jsts will generate for you with attic walls on automatic -
I do it like Scott, if it's too big to fit on an arch d size then I just use a larger page size. of course, if the buildings are too far apart then I would draw them in separate plans.

Yes but is there a manufacturer out there that has curved hardware for the glass.
-
Make sure that glass wall is marked as a partition wall, check the box in the wall definition DBX.

Roof Trusses sitting to low on top plate
DRAWZILLA replied to capitaldesigns's topic in General Q & A
set the heel height to 3.5" or the depth of your bottom cord -
You are correct, you must check all framing as framing or it won't show up.

Did you frame the foundation? or set to auto frame.

2x4 Framed Exterior Walls and Energy Code Compliance
DRAWZILLA replied to GeneDavis's topic in Building Codes and Compliance
Here in California the required 2x4 or 2x6 is what the project as a whole calc.s out to. Mostly new construction goes with 2x6 exterior walls but it all really depends on what climate zone you are in and does the whole project as a whole calc out to work with 2x4 walls or not. Most of the time with additions I can use 2x4 walls with r-15 insulation, it really depends on windows and what's inside that matters. -
Or make that wall balloon through ceiling.
-
One thought is to make sure that the C.J. framing in the room DBX is checked as default, and the default C.J. is checked framing.
-
here "green" means energy efficient, so a reflective color roof would be inn order .

Check the wall framing in your wall definitions.
