Mudsill Showing

[Richard_Morrison]

I'm tearing my hair out (what little is left) trying to get the stucco to cover the mudsill. I thought it was a "build platform to this line" issue, or default wall height issue, but I guess not, since I've checked everything I can. Do I have to pull down every wall?

Have you tried this tool, not just brick, it also works for stucco and drywall

I get it......  can't 'splain it,  post a mini plan and someone may be able to figure it out.......  I think I had the situation recently and I don't remember solving it.

BTW,  you should not have to uses Perry's trick,  but if it works.....  I had not thought of that until Perry mentioned it.

I'm thinking somehow that may have gotten changed.

Well, I figured it out after looking at a section. The wall was an existing wall, so I had defined it with an "air gap" main layer so that framing wouldn't build. As soon as I changed the main layer to "Fir", everything became normal. Here's how it builds with an air gap material. I don't know if this is a bug or not, but it's weird.

 

Thanks, Perry, for that brick ledge trick, though. I seldom use brick, so I hadn't even noticed that.
