I PM'd you a dropbox link for the plan file. I hope it helps It's X17.......your sig block says X16.......that might be an issue. I didn't exactly match....like eyebrow roofs and the low pitched roofs were a guess. What a wild design. Good design always thinks roof as the walls are being placed. Best of luck with this one.

I don’t think I can get the roof to match the elevations 100% so I wouldn’t charge you anything. I look at it as a chief architect and bad Design challenge. If I can get something close, you might be able to be successful with it. Sometimes we just have to help each other out.

We framed them in Harris and Montgomery counties as sloped treys or just trey ceilings.

I need wall heights and corresponding pitches or there are too many variables.

I don’t think the attic ever has a floor. I’m pretty sure you could just add another floor to your model and make it very shallow like 3/4 of an inch or something so that you could actually have a floor system in your attic. I’m not in front of a computer so I can’t verify that this might work

Use temporary dims to actually move walls to the right location....dimensionally. Make time to do things right......don't set the framers up for headaches.

YESSSS!!! Thank you both for reminding me of the all-caps thing. All my plan text is ALL CAPS Arial. I guess I could start doing sentence case and then select all and press the Aa button. Thanks again, gents.

It's never worked for me since 2015. Is it a mac setting?

I open the layout and whatever sheet I need to complete work on, I double click that viewport and it takes me to the proper saved Plainview. Once I’m complete with that I close that tab and go back to layout to work on another sheet. I’ve never worked in programming so I can only imagine how complicated and how much risk exposure happens every time you modify the code to do one thing it may end up breaking several other things. I still think chief is probably the best construction document creator that I’ve experienced so far.

Only $49 US gets you a lifetime StreamDeck mobile license. If it's buttons you want.....the mobile license works on a tablet and gives you 64 buttons. In split screen, you double that to 128 buttons.

If you want to try Stream Deck for the least $$ first, their mobile device app is free and allows you to use a couple buttons. Repurpose an old phone or tablet and get the app. Then its a one time lifetime license, $49. The lifetime license mobile license gives you 64 buttons per screen on an iPad tablet, (or 128 in split screen)

Yoda sells a whole Chief StreamDeck system. I lean on StreamDeck for speed 13 mins in gets good

You might need to check the furred wall box in the 2x4 wall so it can exist close to your conc. wall. Your zipped file only contains the layout file....which is blank.

I guess what I’m saying is you have not provided enough information for someone to accurately build this. You need to have elevations that show the height of things, if the stairs are drawn correctly then you can at least assume that each riser is somewhere between 7 inches and seven and three-quarter inches so you might be able to figure out floor to floor height. Ask Dan Baumann directly. He’s pretty good. The regulars that come in here offering their services to every single posting seem desperate to me. Now I’m waiting for my red down thumb icon. good luck

Oh boo hoo. Larry has been designing amazing homes for over 50 years. I doubt many can keep up with him.

Use the files to trace the walls into chief. The two files seem the same........ How tall are the ceilings? what is the finished floor to floor height to confirm the stairs? Some of the walls range from 12" thick to 19" thick........... Someone will come along and send you a private message to discuss how much money they will need to solve this for you. There are many questions and unknowns so it could get expensive. Just putting a nice roof line on this (12:12 stick framed) will be challenging. Good luck.

M1 maybe. M4 much more likely.

I do the same except I skip the hyphen. The county I live in wants the entire PDF plan resubmitted if there are changes. But I have had other jurisdictions want just the sheet replaced that has any revisions. It’s in those cases that I add the .1 or .2 to the sheet number A8.1 revA A8.2 revB

Bob, I love your energy but she asked for an Idaho based architect.

Were you using Point to Point dimensioning?
