builtright3

LOL I know what those senior moment s are like. I wish I needed an update and all my problems would go away with it LOL!

Thank You

Thank you for the kind words and also for the information. I updated the program a while back. Not sure where you saw the older version. Im probably going to draw the garage with the unit over the top of it in a separate plan file. I think I might have better luck with it. I need to go through and clean it up anyway now that I have a good feel for what I'm doing. Any additional input for how I should rebuild it would be greatly appreciated. One thing that was an issue is that the walls with open ends were not wrapping with stucco. Not sure how to do that.

Thanks you! I'm finding some discrepancies in my wall types and floor structure levels so I need to just go through room by room tomorrow and maybe even redraw the stairs and stairwell area.

Thanks guy's!!!

I used that eyedropper tool to do the siding at the gables instead of changing out the wall type. I think that's what got me in trouble.

You mean just turn off the layer?

I will get some sleep and maybe things will look different tomorrow

For some reason I really have this whole plan messed up. Just sent another thread out for the front house framing. I think I'm suffering from burnout. I have 12 plans going at the same time but this one is giving me a hard time. My Dad is in stage 4 cancer and I have to get out to Michigan from California on the 30th. Burning the candle at both ends to get all my work done.

I would love to place the plan! Harco.plan

What the he** is this? I have never seen this happen before. Anyone got a clue? Thank You

Much closer! Big Help. How did you get rid of these things? Did they just go away when you did what you told me?

Yea, part of the problem is that it passes under the second story cantilever. I did it as one tall room and I tried it with 1st and 2nd floor. There has to be a way but I'm not sure what it is.

I guess no one knows how or don't have the time for me on this one. I will call support in the morning. Its really got me stumped. Thank You for the views

As I move the lower wall back from underneath the upper wall the beam and post disappears. Can anyone help me with this? The plan is attached in my second response. Thank You

Turn on all the Terrain layers and see what comes up and you can just delete it

They look like terrain elevations info Terrain Elevation Data. Turn the layer off or delete it

Here is another file. The other one may not work Harco.plan

Is there anyone that has a little time to help me to clean this up? This my first time attempting to do exterior stairs. I seem to be close but have a few issues I'm having problems with. On top of whats circled in this picture I would like a ceiling instead of vaulted. Harco.zip

I would imagine that if a fire separation is required that they would want it in the attic as well. I ques it would depend on if the requirement is just for the breezeway (corridor) to protect you to get out or for the possibility of a fire on one side reaching the other side.

Thank you, that really helps me.

Although, as a builder if the sections are saying 0" than I may want to match that.

Yes, I do see 100' FF on topo. drawings

That makes a lot of sense. Typically I use the subfloor of the main living space as Zero when I measure elevations of a property and make that consistent to all my subcontractors so we are all on the same page. So I can use negative and positive numbers from there depending if I'm above or below. I'm assuming the plan checker will except anything as long as it makes sense to them.
