twnctyguy Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 Question: How do I get rid of the piece of OSB (see pics below)? Obviously it has to do with the fact that I created a stair well under a sloped ceiling, but I can't be the only person who's ever done this. As always any help is appreciated...thanks!

Chopsaw Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 It has been a while since I have seen that but I think it sometimes happens with drywall sticking out and is associated with a rogue ceiling plane. Not sure if it would be the same with the OSB or not. If you don't get a good answer soon I would post the plan file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JKEdmo Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 To me it looks like a full floor assembly directly under a roof and the depth of the floor assembly is deeper than the roof's and therefore sticks out. (Not sure if this is the source of the problem or if Chief is able to automatically handle such a condition by beveling the end of the floor assembly).

MPDesign Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 In the image it looks like the 2nd floor wall is not stacked with the wall below. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garybills Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 I've had this before, if that area of the 2nd floor is open below the floor structure shows the osb in camera view on the roof but not inside. remove the osb from the open below floor structure and it goes away.

That piece of OSB is floor sheathing from the room above. In order to remove it, that upper room would need to be an "Attic" room type which would automatically remove the floor structure. If you don't want to lose the upper room definition, you can draw an invisible wall about 12" in from the lower exterior wall. This will give you a small 'room' that can be defined as an Attic. The location of this invisible wall can be clearly determined by taking a section view of the building and using some cad tools and/or measuring to find the best location to separate those upper rooms. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
