well its going to need final drawings

do I still go through the process of attic trusses etc?

perfect Thanks!

I'm trying to get my head around this attic space for an in law suite. the garage is 24' x 24' with a 12:12 roof pitch. I cannot see how a 16 x 24 with with kitchen - bedroom bathroom etc is viable in this space. I've attached the garage showing attic plan for you to have a look and let me know if I'm missing something or trying it too long. all your help has been truly appreciated GARAGEPLANDRAWINGS Brady.pdf

so how high are the side walls before they angle up

ok Ill follow your information guide thanks - so will it be viable for a 16 x 24 ft room with kitchen bedroom bath etc

yes that's correct .. you're right...

yes I can do that but trying to figure out how to get the exterior walls to protrude through the roof like the image I attached...

never thought about that. ill look up the help videos thanks

yes I can do that but 16 x 24 will not be same as the 24 x 24 floor below

HI Not sure how to go about this but here is the clients wish list.. - Build a garage 24 x 24 with 9ft ceiling - Build an in-law suite 16' x 24' above the garage with 8' ceiling - Exterior entrance to in law suite I'm pretty sure in order to do this I have to have the exterior walls of the 16' x 24' room extend through the roof on one side in order to have an exterior entrance. but I'm thinking this will be off center Attached is an exterior image example from google search ( only interested in the attic area ) of how I think it will look will work unless you have other suggestions which would be greatly appreciated.. I've never been asked to design this before Cheers Levina Attached is garage plans with attic. i don't see how its possible to have a livable space in the attic (ie) kitchen living room bathroom etc at a comfortable height with 16 x 24 floor plan. knee walls are not very high .. I just need to know it is doable .. with the plan staying within the confines of the roof/attic All your responses and suggestions have been appreciated but I cant seem to get it thanks in advance GARAGEPLANDRAWINGS Brady.pdf

Thank you I appreciate your input and link Cheers

when I tried to open this - instead of opening under x 17 it said it was opening under x 16 and system asked me to upgrade, really strange

- not sure of the project management yet in x 17 - this may not open. joanne cochrane - Copy 1.zip

I have the first floor and foundation but when I build new floor it goes to three ?? when I tried again it went to four where is two??? I am definitely on the first floor - using x 17 any suggestions. I also reset all defaults again but nothing changed Levina

Thank you Chris. all fixed

When I changed my deck sizing . the rails and steps moved but the decking itself stayed in place. any suggestions? Thanks Levina

ok thanks

ok.. is x 17 available only for Beta at the moment?

ok thanks . that is helpful to know

got it Thanks so much !

thanks I just watched it!! perfect

Gee that's strange.. so if i go to x17 can i still revise a plan that was done x16? by reopening x16 even though I have 17?

HI If I upgrade to X17 and need to make changes to a plan done in x16 .. Will I run into any issues that you know of?? Thanks in advance Levina

I didn't realize I hadn't attached the roofs in the same direction. Thanks for this I will attempt your suggestions Cheers Levina
