Not likely. I've built those as garage floors with basements under. Just use a floor structure with layers for the top finish, the 'crete, and the molded EPS stay-in-place forms, and CAD details to show what to do. And do a CAD detail of the plan showing the layout and form lengths. That'd do it for any responsible builder.

Does this help?

Solids will do this nicely. There is no Chief "tool" that produces these, so create them manually with solids.

I just tried doing this by creating a second floor, floor structure like a ceiling structure, i.e. no sheathing, 2x6 joists, made the height of the "floor" 1.5", and autoframed with 2x10 rafters. Comes out just right.

Suggest it. Be clear. It ain't there in X15

@rwaldrondesignswhy not go ahead right now and compose a suggestion that Chief have an option for this? Preferences>Appearance>Text seems like the right place to have it. Something like "Attach leader lines to text at font center first line of block" might be clear enough to understand. Right now the attachment defaults to center of block, and the attachment point can be dragged to snap to block corners and midpoints sides and top and bottom. Your option, if checked, would give you what you want, and also give users an additional snap point for moving the leader attachment point.

Open for spec one of the OK walls. Take a screencap of the wall's type. In the structure tab, take a screencap. See my examples. Now do the same for the 45 wall.

Now is a good time to learn to make new layers for your specific needs in controlling visibility of objects. Click on "New" and type in your new layer's name.

Go for it! Get busy with Chief's 3D and create the glass panel with its two base fittings, including light sources, and one top clip. Save as millwork and use as deck railing.

I think @ValleyGuy has the right approach, and it models the top cap and rail, with 1.5" square baluster butted to cap at top and bevel cut at bottom, seen in almost all those decks built back when this was the fashion. Plus, if you are a newbie with Chief and interested in learning new things, you get to create a molding (the 2x cap and top rail) and a solid (the baluster) you save as a millwork item.

Are you looking to model the arrangement exactly as the photo depicts, with the beams atop the columns having a width narrower than the width/depth of the jacketed columns?

In which panel beginning with 1 at bottom and 8 at top do you want window lites? The garage door symbols in the library are set to stretch up to a limit above which the panels repeat. You will need to make your own door symbol, which takes a few minutes.

Looks like it's where you want it. No? Examine the joint in a section view, measure how you would like to relocate your ceiling plane. Without a plan to examine, it's unclear whether your ceilings are roof bottom layers, or ceiling plans you drew. Ceiling planes are readily relocated with the x-y-z move tool.

For this as-built?

Why not just model the whole thing as a 3D solid, explode it so that each face can be separately textured, and then use the p'line you began with for making the 3D moldings to mock up the outside corner and inside beads? Modeling it with walls seems more tedious. You have the two-story-plus end wall that is shaped, two upper walls for the chimney, two lower walls for the fireplace, thus five walls to draw. Then there are wall connections to deal with, plus whatever happens above the roof.

@winterdd, does "clean it up" mean finish it for them including con docs? Is this a one-off custom or is it to be a stock build for them. Are you in it for con docs also?

Roof planes or solids, and good luck with all the vinyl corner bead and J-stop.

@basketballman, are you willing to share how you do the iso plumbing riser graphic you show in your sample plan? Looks generic to me. Is it, or is it plan-specific?

The user must not understand how to use SPVs, and works from a template in which there are none. Ask them.

Here is another take on it, from a guy whose only biz is doing as-builts.

Might as well just take Chief on a laptop and go around with a laser tape. Plus of course some other tools. This video has a lot of good info from those that do a whole lot of this. I don't think there is a magic bullet app that automates this process, if real-life con docs for remodeling is the need.

I can model that in no cabinets.

And yet it's seen in plenty of photos of homes for sale.

@Renerabbitthow bout showing us all how you did it, and it needs to have the under-box tube frame, plus the look of sinks that are integrally cast with the countertop or maybe @scottharriscan do a video or both of you do vids "master class for cabinets"

Your terminology is confusing, but I think that by "type" of unit, you mean "label." Only units that are so designated in their spec dialog are included in schedules, and when included, get an auto-generated label (W01, W02, etc.) when a schedule is generated. Stacked units, in plan view, have their labels atop each other and you only see one, the lower unit, unless you have drag-moved the stacked unit's label away, or specified its offset such that it is separated enough to see, in the spec dialog. See the attached. Is this what you are after? This same topic came up in the last week or so.
