TeaTime Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 Chief doesn't do fancy brick so good - its easy to overthink this sort of thing but assuming there's only a few of these on this house, it's probably easiest just to make a 3D Solid on one side and copy/reflect it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug_N Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 The feature in the picture is called "corbelling" and is a way for masonry to change the cross-section of a wythe of brick or stone. Most building codes restrict corbels to an offset of 1/3 brick, more or less, unless certified by a structural engineer or architect. Before designing such a structure, my advice is to check what the building code is in your area. This can be done in CA as mentioned, by modelling a 3d solid and then mirroring to match the opposite side. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
