Thanks Joe, I wanted the information to be included in the material list. Detailing is not a problem. I just needed the material list to calculate the quantities of rebar in the slab, Thanks

Thanks Joey for your response, I don't want to use mesh. I want to specify rebar.

I'm using Chief Architect Professional X13 on PC. I've been struggling with how to edit or create rebar for basement or garage slab. Also is there a way to edit Component to include Rebar. Finally, is there any instruction on how to edit the formula in the Component. Thanks

I want to design a gravity masonry retaining wall. I've checked the catalog and there are no features to enable me accomplish that. I've attached a picture of the wall I want to design. PC Chief Architect Premier X12

Thank you very much for the assistance. I'll go through the videos and will let you know if I need additional assistance. Once again thanks

I'm not that vast in using the polyline solid and bolean toolset. Can you point me in the direction of resources (video, link etc) that can assist me. Thanks

Hello All, I am designing the attached catwalk in structural steel using Chief Architect x12. I need assistance as I cannot find steel sections and components in CA. I am running Windows 10. Is it possible to design it in CA. Regards. Ben Catwalk-drw01-Rev03.PDF 20' Catwalk C8 Version - Rev02.PDF

I want to design this type of truss over a shed roof and I cannot find an option to do so. It is called Huffman Truss Sloped.bmp

Hi All, I am an engineer and have Chief Architect Premier X10. I find the structural component of the software very limited in capacity and depth. Are there are robust structural engineering add-ons for CA. Thanks. Ben

Special thanks to you DJ. I appreciate.

Finally I got it. Thanks everybody for your assistance.

Still not working for meAttic Space2.plan Attic Space2.plan

No on the first

Will this message have something to do with it.

Here is the 3D view

Here is how I snapped and pulled back to form the V. The next step "... and use the Join Roof Tool to join the Gable Planes to the Exist Shed Dormer Roof Plane" is what I was not able to do as the 3D does not show me two different roof planes to join. Thanks.

I did. I drew the gables 5' wife each and snapped at 3 points and pulled back the roof plane.

I'm stuck at the gable.

Hi DJ, I kind of got stuck on the gable. I can't seem to get past that point. See attached my plan and 3D views. Thanks. Attic Space.plan

Thank you very much DJ. I'm try working on it. If I run into any challenges, I'll let you. Once again thank you. Ben

Hope this set of images can help. Thanks. Ben

Thanks all for your responses. David James can you work me through your suggested solution. Thanks.

Thanks for your response. I've updated my profile to include the signature. What I posted are screen shoot of PDF design I want to recreate in CA. I'm new to CA and working on a renovation to change the attic roof space. I'm having some challenges increasing the height of the wall and creating a different roof slope and wall height.
