Chopsaw Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 How about a 46 1/2" hallway joining the two areas ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chopsaw Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Not really sure if chief has a way of doing that or not and would have to mess with it quite a bit to know for sure. The interaction with the truss base complicates things a lot. Not saying it can't be done but it might be a manual build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopsaw Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 You can also edit the truss envelopes in Section view which may be the more efficient way to go if it has to be a manual build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chopsaw Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Actually not quite as bad as I first imagined. Make a break in the bottom of the truss base a peel it up then deselect "Attic Truss" for the frame over trusses and rebuild them. Also need to make a break in the attic room below so that the ceiling carries through. Then re-frame for the missing truss. See incomplete concept test plan.
