View Full Version : Stacked walls - need layers to overlap

I have a wall section consisting of CMU and brick down low, with metal framing and metal panels above. I have been using a stacked wall type for the existing condition, but now the issue is that my new wall differs from the existing slightly. The CMU is going to go higher than it is on the existing wall, but I need the brick to align with existing on the outside. So I need the brick layer to drop down from the top of the CMU, and then the metal panel layer above extend down over the CMU.

Is this possible with a stacked wall type, or will I have to resort to using separate walls?

You can do it with a stacked wall, youll just need a third type of basic wall in between.

Mtl Panel - Mtl Framing
Mtl Panel - CMU
Brick - CMU

And the one in the middle will be fairly short, depending on the offset of the CMU height...
