RustyB Posted January 2, 2019 Author Share Posted January 2, 2019 I would like to have 9' exterior wall with a 7'6" ceiling. 2x8 ceiling Joists ledgered to wall. The ceiling joists will also be the sub floor support for an attic (2nd floor). I need help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parkwest Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Did you try a search for balloon framing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evolution Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Rusty, assuming you're using CA version, take a look at this KB Help, which I believe will help you do what you need to do: https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-01050/manually-framing-a-dropped-ceiling.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kbird1 Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 please do your sig. as different versions need different answers , but building the Floor at 9' , then turning off Auto Roof rebuild and resetting the Ceilings to 7'6" should do it I think. Note you cannot turn Auto Roof back on with this method though...ever.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
