Wall Intersection Question

Hello,

 

Working on my as-built model.

 

I created a typical exterior wall composed of 8" brick with interior furring and plaster.  I then copied this wall type and modified it to be a similar interior wall with plaster and furring on both sides.

 

Where the walls intersect, shouldn't Chief merge the main (brick) layers automatically?  I highlighted the issue below.  Or, do I need to do this cleanup manually?

Thank you,

If you are designating a layer in a wall type as framing it needs to in the main layer if you want it to automatically break at wall intersections, or you can manually drag your intersections, or don't designate the fir layer as framing, take your pick :) 
Chief wont assume that you want to break a layer that is designated as auto-framed.
