DeniseR Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I've created a window well around a window in a basement but can't create the hole in the concrete above the window well. I've tried terrain hole and slab hole but nothing is putting the actual hole in the concrete - only the outline of the window well is showing in the concrete when I render in 3D. How do you create the hole? Denise Chief Architect X13 Windows 10, Intel i7, 11th gen, 8 core, 32 GB Nvidia, GeForce RTX, 12 GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopsaw Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Usually you would edit the building terrain hole to make that work but it depends on how you crated the concrete walkway ? P.S. Those stairs would become a bit dangerous with such a hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeniseR Posted March 15, 2022 Author Share Posted March 15, 2022 It's just a concrete slab...a patio (Monolithic slab with floor underneath room checked) . Oh, good point! I'll include a rail on that side of the stairs. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you need a hole in the floor then or perhaps shape the room around the opening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeniseR Posted March 15, 2022 Author Share Posted March 15, 2022 I'll give that a try. Have you created a window well in a concrete slab, if so how did you do it? Should I have created it differently to begin with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopsaw Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Having difficulties working with the mono slab but have not tried it before. Completely workable if you replace that with a p-solid though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chopsaw Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 You can cut a hole through a true monoslab on the foundation level but the program complains a bit if it is at the very edge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeniseR Posted March 15, 2022 Author Share Posted March 15, 2022 Ho did you do that? I've been trying your idea of putting a room around it and that didn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
