door in two walls overlap

Please give me a solution for build a door in two walls overlap. See the drawing.


Thanks,

I do not have time to look at the drawing, but assuming that the walls are co-planar, you should be able to add the door one wall in the usual way, position it, then use the door as an interference in the other wall to cut the opening.

I have now had time to look at your drawing. Your walls are stacked one on top of the other. I am not certain why you have two walls of the same style stacked that way, but I will assume you have your reasons.

Select the wall that does not have the door anchored to it [the top wall in this case], right click and choose Interference Condition > Add from the context menu. Note that I am doing this in ADT 2004; if you use a different version, you may find that the menu names are not exactly the same, but there should be something similar to the noted choices available. Select the door when prompted to "Select AEC objects to add", and press ENTER. Choose Subtractive as the plan shrinkwrap effect and press ENTER.

Your file should look like the one in the attached ZIP file.
