Hey guys, would you take on a job using CA for Q-decking or (lite deck)? I can manually draw the steel floor trusses but is there a way to show the second floor as Q-decking w/ concrete floor? To me this is more of a revit job but has it been done in CA. I have zero experience in Revit and do not have time to learn it. Maybe just show a 4" floor structure thickness of concrete and draw in the Q-decking?

 

The roof is purchased panels as well.

I def would.  Just treat the decking like any other decking, but instead of 3/4" Advantech underlayment like you normally would, call out the Q-decking and the concrete floor (using the correct thicknesses).  Shoot, even call out the truss as part of the setup also.

I hear that! I knew the ICF was set up in CA but want to make sure I could do the rest and it be accurate. The roof panels are purchased from a vendor so I guess I will need to see the specs. It will be an off grid home with all ICF, in and out, catch rain water into a cistern and concrete floors above and below. Engineer should have a blast checking over these drawings when I am done.

Hey Rob! I've completed a high end home like this and I probably have all the details / information you might need to help complete your plans or at the very least simplify the deign process. Send me a PM if you think that might be helpful.
