RobUSMC Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Can someone help with the steps of changing the floor height from one room to another. I have a project where on one side of the main family room there is a step up going to a front hallway and on the other end of this family room you step down to go to a back hallway. This is a slab on grade foundation. Ive attached a few pics showing the steps at the front and back hallways. Thanks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidJPotter Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 On a first floor, you just alter the floor height setting on the structure tab. On the second floor and other upper floors, you have to take into consideration that lowering the floor of a second-floor room directly affects the room below (lowering its ceiling), the rules of physics do not change in the physical universe any more than they do in a virtual environment.

RobUSMC Posted April 23, 2018 Author Share Posted April 23, 2018 You're saying in the structure tab for Floor (C) just enter a + / - height elevation? +12" or -12" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
