alexpwalsh Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 I'm stumped. I was getting a weird set of extra lines in my foundation view, and when I took a look in 3D I found it's my sheathing/siding layers cutting a notch out of my stem wall. I've played with stem wall thickness, wall layers, etc. and it won't budge. The detail I'd really like to accomplish is the one attached, but in the model I'm okay with standard stem wall to make an easy-to-follow layout and show the detail elsewhere. I'd attach the plan file but it is 35MB and above the size limit.. could email if need be. Please help!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwideziner Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Look at your wall settings, specifically build foundation to. but familiarize yourself with all wall settings. the F1 key can be a godsend when having these basic problems 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexpwalsh Posted January 25, 2021 Author Share Posted January 25, 2021 I've been hitting my head against a wall all day, I've tried every wall and foundation setting I can find short of redrawing the whole thing. Attached are the wall and foundation dialogs of this particular wall in their latest state. Any suggestions on a specific setting or issue I am missing?

alexpwalsh Posted January 25, 2021 Author Share Posted January 25, 2021 HOLY CRAP! There was a 1" brick ledge in that 6" siding wall definition. I guess the stone veneer does that automatically.. and for some reason it was applied to the walls with just siding as well. Probably related to errant use of material eyedropper. It's always something like that.. for these problems I never even know what to search in the help docs. Thanks a ton guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robdyck Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 That particular condition showed in the OP can also be the cause of a sill plate being spec'd in the foundation wall dbx. This would not apply to a pony wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
