Exellent, thanks everyone. I though there would of been a easier way.
-
Thanks for all suggestion, very appreciated. I endedup making room for the stairs to work, though i cannot get the floors to show up between the stairs. all walls invisable. Elevation in Cad Impoort Lindfield.plan

As i see it, i need to build a room with 5 floors and adjust the floor levels to the measurement from the stair section (From Pic attached). With all invisable walls. Would be good if i coulld use slab tool and draw the stairs from slab to slab. Ryan, Im a builder not an Architect and when i build i strive for 100% when it comes to detail. I need to workout the steps to be all equal. I like to nut it all out before i begin. I create a 3dmodel and nut out many details that are not visable on a2D plan. Here a link to this model the Architect sent us. You can see the stairs clearly on the side of the house. https://skfb.ly/opxHU

The stairs as shown on the first post, Three steps then path, three steps then path and so on. No winders.

I know how to build stairs though because they dont relate to the floors of the house. Im asking which is the best way to build them
-
Have external stairs next to the building. Do i need to build rooms in order to build the stairs?
-
Glen, I was talking about the opening above the stair. If I use the, Automatical generate a stairwell above these stairs, i get the curved balustrade in the corner. If i manually build the railing around the top floor i get a clean opening around the staircase. Stair Sample.plan
-
The stairs worked out perfectly except when i used the "Automatical generate a stairwell above these stairs, I got a curved balustrade in the corner. If i make the openning manually with railing walls it comes out correct. Glen i see you didnt use the auto tool.
-
Yeah Mick allowed. See dwg of what we can do here, taken from National Construction Code. We can have six in one landing.
-
Thanks Glenn, perfect.

Here are the plans Stair Sample.plan

The stairs have been largely improved, though im having a few issues. The handrail at the top of the stairs dont quite reach the top on the left. The handrail on the right side cuts into the the floor. Cannot see anywhere to adjust the handle rail distance from the edge. The stair floor opening i use the auto opening. Lastly i would like to finish the three winder on the outsde corner to a point.

A small wall 900 high in front of one of the bathroom main wall -
I have a bathroom with tiles on the wall, when i add a small dwaf wall in front and push it up against one of the walls the tiles seem to disapear. What am i missing?

Thanks, Steve got it. How about the gap in the facia? i.e between the roof tiles and eaves?
-
Thanks, Steve I see Joey has the wall drawn on level one and highlighted it as an attic wall. Though didn't work for me. If I change to attic wall the wall extends to the right.
-
Search material lists on this forum you will find plenty here. I agree with Michael on this one.

Hi Joey, nice one though, I cannot replicate what you did

You don't loose your drawing, CA makes a backup in the temp file.

External walls with different materials meeting at corners
gelbuilding replied to Jackstacey's topic in General Q & A
You need to make a copy of the wall type you use. From the copied wall give it a separate name and add the texture with an external layer with 1mm thickness and you'll get what you require. -
