Rich_Winsor 205 Posted September 21, 2016 I haven't had much occasion to use the sidewalk tools, so I was disgruntled to discover that Chief apparently has no provisions for making control or expansion joints in sidewalks and slabs. I don't know anybody who pours concrete without such joints and it's little touches like this that add believability and realism to a scene. This is what a standard 48" wide sidewalk looks like in our neck of the woods. Not just an unbroken expanse of concrete. To accomplish this effect I had to make an array out of 50 2' x 2' segments of sidewalk. And Lord help you if there is a driveway involved. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tommy1 112 Posted September 21, 2016 I never show the expansion joints in 3D or plan views. I have a cad detail for flatwork that specifies this information that is used in the layout. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joe_Carrick 2388 Posted September 21, 2016 You could use a Tile Material to emulate the joints. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
