Oh boy, this one is in my wheelhouse..... if I can only answer before Alaskan Son does...... define the dropped ceiling in the ceiling tab.... you want a 10" dropped ceiling, give 6" of airspace under floor joists and then 3-1/2" ceiling joists and then 1/2" drywall. Easy Peasy

Thanks Racklamore...... I swear, every time I see rlackoe I think of Racklamore, isn't that weird? I appreciate the garage doors.

Maybe, or after turning off auto framing he adjusted the floor height which is essentially what you are saying.

thanks for posting Glenn. I think I learned something. You used two terrain regions. A blue one and a red one. I was playing with the blue terrain region doing two tests test 1 the blue region was higher than red region test 2 the blue region was lower than the red region. The blue region controlled the red region. The question is when will the red region control the blue region.

me too

Good call AS

It looks like it is in line with the roof returns. If you deleted the roof returns, would you get the entire soffit or no soffit. I wonder if you built those return manually if it would fix or vice versa. Hmmm. its looks like you do not have a BOXED SOFFIT spec'd for the roof returns or the eaves. You could post the plan and let someone look at it.

I think he wants the prefix to designate the different disciplines, i.e., A,S,M,E,P That should be able to be done by using 5 different Template Pages

If the wall is 20' long, 10' has to be open I can't wait until PLANNING chips in...

not perfect. Perry might be able to help - no BOXED eaves -copy wall and put it. on upper level (that will get the interior finish to ALMOST get as high as roof sheathing CHF_Beacham_Shambaugh_REMODEL_07-15-20-2 fixed. kjbju.plan

post the plan

I wouldn't of guessed this 50% on each side. Planning need to approve also. Respectfully, Isam Hasenin, P.E., CBO President True North Compliance Services, Inc. Solana Beach | Alhambra | Redwood City P: (626) 660-6292

I doubt you have a soffit. No soffit means the rafters are the fascia color. But you are lucky.... by putting in a soffit....... very very small with opening no material selected, you will get the rafters the color you want and I think the exterior wall will frame up to the sheathing. If that does not work for you, create the exposed rafters out of soffits or psolids.

Yes, I have calls and emails into the city and the private plan review service, chief talk, the president, my Mom and my 6 year old grand daughter. Nobody is returning my call.....

yes,

A Garage is considered a carport when it is open on 2 sides. How open does a wall need to be open to be considered open? Isn't it 70% I am referring to CRC R309.2. But it does not define what "open" is. Does anybody know?

You need to edit your rafter framing material, see pic

Your framing material is not a framing material. Change your rafters to a framing material.

If you do not have a soffit, the rafters assume the color of your fascia. Put a soffit at your eaves and I would bet your rafters will be a fir framing material.

BTW, if you can wait about 5. hours, Glenn should be rising out of bed from his beach view Manse in Northern Sydney Australia where the rich and famous lives and he can probably set us all straight.

Do you understand the following statement? Below is an example. For CABINET hot keys I use a 2 stroke hot key starting with a "C". If I want to use a single keystroke of a "C" I get the following message. IOW, if I want to use a single stroke hot key, the keystroke cannot be used to begin a multiple hot key operation. The above statement is the key to understanding hotkey options.

BTW, you cannot use SPACE BAR,C. as a hot key, but you can use C,SPACE BAR as a hot key.

If I am not mistaken you can have one key, two key, three key and 4 key short cuts. Every single key can be a single hot key...... EXCEPT a key YOU CHOSE that is the key that will tell CA the hot key sequence will be a two key hot key..... similar to you SPACE BAR key. CA's method is even better because you do not need to hit the space bar for a single stroke hot key.. Back in the day all hot keys were single stroke. And then the Great Glenn Woodward advocated for multiple key hot keys. We finally got them a few years ago. "This does not preclude you from have shortcuts like "AA", "AAA", "AAB", "AAC", "ABB"." The above bold statement is not correct. You can not have the AA if you want the AAA and AAB. Think about it.... how would CA know that after you type in AA you that another keystroke is next. Below is an example. For CABINET hot keys I use a 2 stroke hot key starting with a "C". If I want to use a single keystroke of a "C" I get the following message. IOW, if I want to use a single stroke hot key, the keystroke cannot be used to begin a multiple hot key operation. So to restate the point of the post, you can have a single stroke hot WITHOUT using the space bar as a select key which in effect makes CA's hot key method better than the ACAD method. Glenn, please correct me if I am mistaken.

Yep, we spec out 2x14's here also. Especially for stair stringers. Give us a few years and our stair stringers will be 2x18's.

hmmm, I wonder if they fixed that or my memory is failing me, good to know, thx
