Wall Pilasters

[JKEdmo]

How do you all usually model wall pilasters / bump-outs on a framed wall?

 

 

Thanks, Jim

You can create a wall break and thicken the wall in those locations for a quick way to create those. If for a remodel, I generally like to know how those are build though and model that way. Are the furred or extra framed walls, or larger framing members?

Thanks Joey.  That's kind of the way I've been doing it, or as individual chases.  I was wondering if there was a method I was overlooking.

Dunno.  Just working of a supplied plan.  Not able to visit site.

You can also use a double 2x4 stud wall designed as a single wall and use a niche for the opening in the wall

Interesting approach.  I have not used the niche tool yet.  I will try it out.

 

Thanks again,
