For a site plan? 3d? If for 3d, search this site for "plumbing riser diagram"

I usually do this with poly solids. Some subtraction and then put a hood unit inside. Generally one of the pro GE or Viking ones.

Suggestions for Chief Compatible Framing Takeoff Software?
Gawdzira replied to 5Design's topic in General Q & A
What is a "patio header"? Is that a regional term? -
Carmel by the Sea counts the building area to the outside of the siding. I believe Monterey County does as well.

California CRC - attached garage door?
Gawdzira replied to Gawdzira's topic in Building Codes and Compliance
Thanks, I found this: (pic) But, I am unclear if the exception with fire sprinklers would allow a non 1-3/8" thick door. Like a shaker style panel door? -
Is it still required to have a 20 min. door with self closing hardware on an attached garage to house door? I heard that this was removed from the CRC.

Wall detail - best design with conditioned crawlspace and hung joists
Gawdzira replied to dnh234589's topic in General Q & A
In regards to your sill plate gap, both side are critical nailing locations so I would rip a 2x10 to fit. Also, on the side where the hangers touch the P.T., I would put a strip of peel and stick Bituthane or Zip tape to isolate the metal from the P.T.. Even though you can get Zmax hangers, if you ask the engineers at Simpson (and they are being honest) they will tell you that nothing except stainless steel will survive P.T.. -
Wall detail - best design with conditioned crawlspace and hung joists
Gawdzira replied to dnh234589's topic in General Q & A
Thanks for that input @Bob-Roraback Does the vapor barrier issue still apply with a conditioned crawlspace? There is a thread in the Chatroom currently regarding details and who will read them. I am hopeful to see a paradigm shift that construction documents become a true instruction set for the builders. I don't want to hijack this thread but the other thread in the Chatroom will hopefully get traction to open this discussion. -
Wall detail - best design with conditioned crawlspace and hung joists
Gawdzira replied to dnh234589's topic in General Q & A
Looks good. I have a few questions regarding the placement of: 1. the sill sealer sheet at the wall to joists. Why do you have that there? The batt insulation should make that connection and this is not an air barrier type of set up for that system. 2. The sill sealer below the sill plate is not standard where I have built. I would normally put that at the P.T. sill plate to concrete wall connection. Below the wall sill plate, I have been using acoustic sealant to maintain a tight air barrier. 3. I am not familiar with putting a drain pipe on the inside of the foundation walls. Is this a frost heave prevention detail? -

Printing Elevation using Scale Dimensions, not Actual
Gawdzira replied to PJS-59's topic in General Q & A
I did use that print model feature once when making a chipboard model. The guy in the office next to me just got a small laser cutter for making wood models and now I really miss having that feature. -

Default to interior dimensions when drawing?
Gawdzira replied to LisaPrincipe's topic in General Q & A
Also, on Michaels last image, change the "Locate" to "Surfaces". That will give you what you want for as built conditions. -
Default to interior dimensions when drawing?
Gawdzira replied to LisaPrincipe's topic in General Q & A
I have hot keys for standard dimensioning and for interior dimensioning. I would recommend setting up a hot key for interior dimensions (and just about everything else you use constantly). -

900 series aluminum railings for chief architect

Or this? -
I often need to push the perspective to capture enough in small spaces. I will then take the image to Lightroom to adjust for vertical.
