cbucks Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Good day what’s the best way to show Huberwood Zip System and Advantech Subfloor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joey_martin Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Build your wall layers exactly like the product. Don't over think it. NOTE: The 1/16" layer I use just as the ZIP outer layer showing the material, and it gives me the 1/2" sheeting layer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneDavis Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 For the subfloor, which looks like anybody's OSB, you just call it out in specs and point to it in a CAD detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to add to this good advice, you can if you need to for your material takeoff for example copy the OSB material and rename it Advantech 3/4" T&G Subflooring. If you really were specific enough you can actually get a picture and just create it from scratch as well but I don't think I would ever see a need to actually see the advantech logo on a rendering or 3d view. Maybe if you were doing a 3d detail or something I guess. But it is doable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is a 3/4" 4x8 sheet size 1/2 offset Advantech subflooring material. Advantech .75%22 Subflooringcalibz.calibz 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Found a picture of a sheet online and used a photo editor to make a scaled continuous material. Then just set the different specifications in the material dbx. https://www.chiefarchitect.com/support/article/KB-00767/creating-a-new-material.html check out this article for the basics. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
