Sweeney 2 Posted May 30, 2018 Good morning! Wondering if anyone has accomplished this detail in Chief and if so, how? Specifically wondering how to step the ledge on a foundation wall 7" to allow space of a 4" slab and 3" XPS. Any good videos out there? Thanks for your time!

Michael_Gia 60 Posted May 30, 2018 Seek out the one they call Scott Hall... Youtube + search slab or foundation etc. Unfortunately you’ll find that you can’t control that level of detail with Chief. Just use auto detail and manipulate the fills to represent what you need. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joey_martin 289 Posted May 30, 2018 The wall part is easy, just a pony wall with a layer of insulation added. For the slab, set the thickness of the slab to 6" and when you detail, pull the fill up 2" and add the insulation fill as needed. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
solver 1412 Posted May 30, 2018 Info from some previous threads.You can add layers to the floor structure and create custom wall types. https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/13806-suspended-garage-slab Posted April 21, 2017 Done quickly using a pony wall for the stem wall, hang floor inside foundation wall. Floor structure 4" concrete and 8" concrete. https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/15516-create-a-raised-slab Posted October 24, 2017 On 10/24/2017 at 11:43 AM, Kbird1 said: **edit ...the ponywall does work ( set both heights to -8) but the Slab doesn't auto fill the floor to the 4" block but you can always use a custom slab to do that Not sure what I did differently. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
