Thanks for suggestions! I checked my wall defaults and sure enough the wall type i was using had another layer of framing on the interior layer also check marked for auto insulation. Problem solved.

Yes, sir. Wasn't expecting this and the worst part is i can't select them to manually remove them..

Which setting is responsible for these half circles?

Thanks for the attachment! I got it work with elevation lines and material regions for the front to back grades. How do i get left to right slopes to work with elevation lines and material regions?

I seem to have issues with references.. Nice CROWN is what i get when elevations points are set.

Here is the terrain i am trying to create: I would like to set terrain at 60.88m as the height point of elevation Input surveyor property line points. Having difficulty setting terrain elevation heights from surveyor given points as elevation lines and elevation regions have only one elevation value input. Need help creating terrain from the given various elevation heights. All grade elevations at the building had to be calculated manually. I was hoping these values can be displayed automatically after terrain is built and building is set. I thinks i am asking too much from the chief... Glennw: you are on the right track. I am trying to set terrain at 60.88m so i can input give terrain values without calculating the differences for each, but need the story pole dimensions of main floor TOJ to start at 0, so the terrain elevations aren't used in building heights dimensions. Kbird: I use imperial template so the building can be dimensioned in ft-in units, but our building department works in metric units, hence i am trying to create plot plan in metric units and keep the rest in imperial. I will play with turning off elevation labels...

Been having A time to set terrain elevation to 60.58m as a base, so i can set proper grade as per " Specific walkout lot detail) in the plan reference. I've watched all the videos I could find on this and tried to get it to work with no success. I am trying to set terrain elevations and building TOJ elevation to "Specific walkout lot detail". If I have a baseline set properly then i can input metric elevations for heights. I still want to have main floor TOJ as 0 for building story pole elevations. 3. How can I have elevation points show on plot plan as points on elevation line? Any suggestions would be great to what I am doing wrong with the terrain sea level elevations. Plot Plan T5.plan

Thanks for your help! I'll post the terrain debacle in separate thread, as it should.

I've corrected all property lines to match. 1. Something happened and for some reason I can't convert polyline to terrain. Terrain feature is grayed out. 2.

The civil plot plan from the developer is done in what appears to be Azimuth system. Geodetic control unit | Alberta.ca Plot Plan T5.plan Plot Plan T5.plan

Thanks! Yes, you are right, there is still adjustments to be made for top and bottom. Today I had a breather and wanted to see if there is a better way to display correct Azimuth coordinates. Previously I just masked them and moved on (as suggested before), but it was always on my mind.

I accidently deleted the thread when replying. Thanks to everyone contributed to come up with workaround. Issue: When Azimuth coordinate system selected for the polyline, the angles do not show correct. Solution contributors Alaskan_Son, GlenW, Chopsaw Solution: Make a copy of the terrain polyline. Move terrain polyline copy to the side. Assign to unique layer. Disconnect copied polyline. Reverse polyline direction for each required polyline. Do not close polylines Block polylines that now show correct Azimuth angles/length. When ready for annotation, overlay blocked polylines over terrain perimeter.

Hi Robert, Thank you for the attached plan with changes. I've played around with my model while referring to your version and came to the following conclusions: 1. Added ceiling plane was causing issues with walls not framing correctly at the roof. I stretched it over back and front wall to resolve it. 2. Splitting walls (instead of using material region) was causing second issue with framing around openings. 3. Size of window above the garage door was causing additional issues with framing. I got all these issues worked out now. Much appreciated!

Thank you Robert for showing exact steps! Much appreciated!!!

Thank you for pointing in the right direction how tix it temporary. I use site plan for elevation references and for 3d as well. I'll be submitting this to chief support, hopefully they will include this fix in update roll out (wishful thinking...) or at least X14, as I use color in the layout quite a bit.

Thank you Robert! I am working through your suggestions to fix wall framing to start..
