Clemsongrad Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 This house has changed sizes 6 times and I'm wondering if I should just draw it all over. I'm not sure how to create the house with a slab on grade with a center thickened slab with 24 " crawlspace (3 concrete block high) then conventional floor rafters (or possibly floor trusses) When I drew the slab as a stand alone drawing I got some funny conditions even after a bunch of you jumped in to help.

javatom Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 You have a foundation as level 1. It should be on level 0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RGWhite Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Let me try to understand: You drew a plan and have changed it 6 times. You want a slab on grade and then build a stem wall with floor joist. Draw the house walls first then build foundation (stem wall). Add slab later.

Clemsongrad Posted December 29, 2016 Author Share Posted December 29, 2016 I don't know how to get it on level 0 after the fact. To RG, I don't care about the order. Whatever works best, but yes to slab on grade with stem walls and floor joists. See new bare house attached 24x36 Slab rev3.plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glennw Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Normally you would: Build your crawl space walls on level 1 and your main floor walls on level 2. Auto build a mono slab foundation. In your case: Build Floor...Build Foundation with mono slab. You will now have a mono slab on level 0, a crawl space with wall on level 1. Now build level 2. You will need to fix things like floor/ceiling heights and structure types as well as wall definitions. There are any number of ways to get where you want, but the above is a basic outline. Let me know if you want to do a Skype session and I will run you through it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
