  1. Did you frame the foundation? or set to auto frame.
  2. 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.
  3. Or make that wall balloon through ceiling.
  4. 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.
  5. here "green" means energy efficient, so a reflective color roof would be inn order .
  6. try this site . Rene has some templates for sale https://www.rabbittdesign.net/

    niche

    Is auto wall framing on?
  8. Did you try to actually print it, sometimes they go away when you print.
  9. that would not work for me, I'm as tall as the door, I would pee all over the walls.
  10. Check the wall framing in your wall definitions.
  11. my son owns this company so let me know if you have questions.
  12. I just add a note to the section for the slope.
  13. I build those lattice roofs using a deck on the 2nd floor adjusting the decking to 2x2 spaced 2" or whatever you need. it also frames the posts and header, very quick.
  14. the builders I draw for have their subs provide me with the info. needed. they markup a plan, then I transfer that info. Doesn't happen very often, maybe 2 times in 10 years..
  15. I don't use Rescheck but i always try to get the best energy efficiency under the budget provided to me.
  16. You can also use a double 2x4 stud wall designed as a single wall and use a niche for the opening in the wall
  17. here is a little info on shower doors if anyone is interested. https://fhc-usa.com/pub/catalog/shower/FSH24/FSH24.html#p=Front Cover
  18. I just add an s.c. to the label of exterior doors and a h.c. to the interior door's labels. This is in my template plan, so I do it once and it's always there..
  19. yes but the question as I see it is, can we still use X14. I think yes
  20. You need to push them together better so each window meets in the middle of the other wall.
  21. We are preparing to purchase an additional license key for our account. I see it as an additional seat. maybe a little more info from her is needed.
  22. I think she is referencing an additional lic., but I think she already has X14. and of course she can still use any prior version.
