msshemwell Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 I have two different wall types here for a basement plan I'm working on. One is an 8" concrete stem wall with a 1 1/2" air gap, 3 1/2" framing, and 1/2" drywall. The other is a standard interior 6 wall. I can't seem to get them to play nice in the areas that they merge. Any help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopsaw Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 You have a fairly complex situation there but the "Edit Wall Layers Intersection" tool my be of some use for you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any help? Hard to tell what the problem is...but, you may want to try and define your foundation wall as I have shown in the attached. You may want to look into "furred wall" also. Sometimes if you designate a wall or a portion of a wall as "furred" [you can find this setting in the wall dbx under the structure tab]. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Chopsaw! I was able to edit the intersection points and achieve essentially what I was looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
