Raise the Roof!

Hi all.

 

I'm using Premier X12 Student Edition.

So I'm trying to raise the ceiling in my first level.  As you you can see, the garage is basically sitting on the roof.

Any idea why new walls are being created when trying to expand the ceilings to 9' on the first level?

Hey JP,

 

Get used to using pre cut lumber lengths for your walls too.  I don't know if this is actual assignment, if so, your tech professor will explain.  In essence for a 9' ceiling, your rough needs to be 109 1/8".  The finish ceiling will be be based on your ceiling drywall thickness, if strapping is needed (typical in the NE), and your floor finish.  Study up on this, you might impress your instructor then.
