winterdd Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 This happened a while back and I cannot remember how I resolved this. It's a simple screened porch addition off the back of a home and the "screened porch" is set to mono slab but the existing home is set to stem wall. As you can see it is clearly there but when I got to level 0 fdn plan nothing is there to dimension. When I build the fdn I check "walls with footings" and not mono because the land slopes back to front. Suggestions? And yes, slabs layer is turned on.

robdyck Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 If you had auto-build foundations turned on, it should build. Can you rebuild the foundation? Or, just draw in your foundation walls and then make all the necessary adjustments. Foundation Wall / Slab Footing / Align Footing on Outside / Monolithic Slab chamfer width & height... The plan file would be helpful to see what has been done and what can be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take for granted CA does a lot for ya automatically and when it don't it may be the norm to do it manually. When I rebuild the FDN is still does not come in.

winterdd Posted August 27, 2023 Author Share Posted August 27, 2023 Actually the thought occurred to me. I separated the existing rear porch from the screened porch addition with an invisible wall. I then drew the screened porch with half walls. I checked to see if those were checked to have "footings below wall" in the structure tab and they weren't. Problem solved. Hopes this helps others.
