ChiefGeorgeK Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 I am looking for assistance to solve a build framing problem on my first floor. A section of floor joists in the same room will not butt against a rim joist. I have tried setting different attributes in the dialogue boxes but cannot extend the floor joists to the rim joist under a particular wall. The other walls in the same room setup the framing correctly when the build framing macro runs. Can someone take a look at my wall facing the north, in the north facing porch, and then give me suggestions as to what is wrong with my wall settings? I have thinned out the rail wall so that the sill plate below goes to the outside edge of the foundation. Otherwise, the sill pate centres on the foundation wall is not correct. Would appreciate receiving some guidance here. Remodel_1.18.1.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgardner Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Make the railing wall no room definition/and as a partition wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiefGeorgeK Posted May 27, 2022 Author Share Posted May 27, 2022 Okay, I will try that. Appreciate your feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiefGeorgeK Posted May 27, 2022 Author Share Posted May 27, 2022 I changed that one wall setting to no definition but then I cannot regenerate the framing. The room selection gets turned off. I changed the wall back to have a room definition and then changed the wall type to partition. I ran the build framing macro without any success at eliminating the gap.

ChiefGeorgeK Posted June 10, 2022 Author Share Posted June 10, 2022 The basement walls created the issue. One wall had the "Bearing Wall" Structure attribute set and the other did not. Problem corrected by unchecking the "Bearing Wall" structure attribute and then I used the "Joist Direction" tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both steps to the inner wall were necessary and would take care of the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
