Thx Jim,   

Hi All,

I cannot find:

Where is SolarTube and

Stair Riser Lights in library

thanks in advance!

Not that I know of unless you use a separate roof plane for the eve

Great question, I believe if you used a sub facial with 1/16 inch thick, and then you put a invisible soffit built to that 1/16 inch sub facia, the exterior finish will go up and in between the Rafters too the soffit. Remember, the soffit material needs to be invisible, opening no material.

this is the Perry H method

Thanks Jim & Alan (appreciate the link to the catalogs.) Hey and they won't put what are you doing it's like us interfere go to system living assisted living in a house in the house in the house in my house yeah you yeah you don't have to go to the assistant he said he'll come in do the service 48 eight your house gotcha thanks very much I have to get well hello

These are the assemblies that come close....  the big hang up is we are putting a JADU under an EXISTING FLOOR ASSEMBLY and we we trying to avoid adding an extra layer of the existing 3/4" ply sub floor.

I think my client will need to put an extra layer of something on the existing floor assembly above the new JADU.

Thank again.,

Do you mean floor assembly?

Yes,  I mean floor assembly,  thank you

Yeah,  I still do not have an answer for this.

I am looking for a 1-hour Wall Assembly with an STC50 and IMPACT class of IIC using 2x10's @ 16" oc.

Does anybody have this detail handy?

If you do,  thank you.......  (I already have the existing condition of 3/4" ply on the 2x10 @ 16,  I would rather not add anything on top of plywood since it is an existing condition.  I can do anything at bottom of floor).

Hi Rene,  I thought about that......  but I was not sure it was going to come out this year........  hmmm....  maybe I should cancel it....  

good vids Rene,  thanks

A timely thread for me.  I have the MacBook Pro on order.  I should have it in a week.

I will be interested in the speed issues...

But I do need an external monitor.....

- 27" min........

-4k or 54k?

Does anybody have a suggestion for an external monitor????

Perhaps using the Reference Display and a custom Reference Layer Set will work for this situation. Refer to the Reference Manual and search for "Referencing a Floor Plan."

Robert is correct... not perhaps but absolutely use the ref layer set method.

I give away the DXF files of the plan all the time.  Not a big deal to me.  Just a courtesy.

I do not guarantee the accuracy.  

I did some great curved cabinet videos back in the day but I cannot find them now.

I would create the shape of cabinet in plan view via cad lines and arcs,  using the info from the curved lines ,  I could then shape the cabinet.  

The real key is being able to define the BOW DEPTH via the CAD layout.

If I remember correctly,  I could do just about anything I wanted.

Hi Don,  Thanks for this. I will pass it on.

They have CA,  but they do cabinets in 20/20.  I draw the plans in CA and then they need to draw in 20/20 to do their cabinets.  
 

so stupid that 20/20 cannot import DXF. 
 

I sent them in yet DXF file.  I just want to know if a 2020 user can import a DXF file. I am not sure my clients are savvy enough to understand it.
 

I can’t believe it’s not possible to import a DXF file in 2020. I did look on the Internet and it wasn’t very clear on whether you could import a DXF file in 2020.

just trying to get clarification from somebody that knows.

Sounds simple enough, have you sent a test file to your client to open?

I did send them a file. I don’t think I know how to do it. I just wanted to make sure it was possible.

Hi All,

Can a client using 20/20 import a CA DXF file?

thank you!

Turn off auto build foundation.  Build the foundations manually.

I have an elevation region that is -9' and an elevation region that is -11' and a driveway between the two with the one side a retaining wall and the other side a foundation wall. For some reason chief is adding a -8 region in between and a lot of little swirls. Please see attached photo. I highlighted the elevation regions in Blue and I think I snapped everything in the region against the walls

For the fun of it, drag your terrain break through the wall into that void space since and see what you get

Sorry new b q' how do you get the simplify polyline tool to show up? I have a driveway do I convert to poly line then convert back?

Right click, you should get the sub menu and then you’ll see the simplified polyline tool

I would do as RGARDNER suggests,  do tot check box for retaining wall.

I forgot 2ho made these garage doors,  but I am very appreciative... attached is the library

garage doors by a generoius CA user.calibz

To date I have always included multiple structures in one plan file.....  Houses,  ADU's,  detached garages......

If it was an apartment project I may consider separate plan files.......

I never convert garages or ADU's to symbols......  for whatever reason,  my projects are ever changing.

I had a project with a detached garage,  an ADU and a House, and a Swimming Pool  all oriented at different angles....  I put them all in same plan file......  this made it easier to see the relationship between all structures around pool.  

I suppose you could use ref sets but editing between plans seems to be more difficult.

Different strokes for different folks

that worked,  but if you then break in half because the footing at garage is 12" wide and the other 15" wide,  the problem comes back.

Being out here on the west coast with the rest of the nuts,  we do not do the brick ledge so I had not noticed the issue.
