foxbody89 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 My exterior walls consist of cmu block with an insulation board layer and a furring strip layer with a finished drywall layer. For some reason my insulation layer is peeking through the drywall on my 3d views and I have no idea why this is happening, is there a way to make this hidden like it should be? I attached a picture of what I am talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlackore Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 It would be helpful if you posted a screenshot of your wall definition. Make sure the insulation board, furring strip, and drywall layers are "interior" layers, and that they aren't zero thickness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
javatom Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 It looks more like a plan problem than a wall definition problem. It could be an intersecting floor platform. Maybe you could post the plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It acts like a glitch to me because sometimes it shows the furring strip material instead of the insulation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlackore Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I'd try changing the furring strip to any other material besides a framing material; try an "air gap" material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glennw Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Looks to me like it could be a Wall Covering strip. Open the wall dbx and see if there is anything specified on the Wall Covering panel (like Insulation Rigid). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlackore Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Ignore my suggestion about the framing material - I just dug into my own wall definitions and discovered I've defined my interior furring as framing also, and I don't experience any issues. Is the room shown in a basement? What's happening on the other side of the wall? Why don't you post the plan so we can take a closer look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
