I have seen these rear their heads several times so now I am posting here to see if anyone else has seen them too!
#1 - drew a concrete retaining wall 3' out from my building with 5' ht from level 1. Then I drew the arced walls from core centerline. Everything appears to line up fine but you get the seamline. Go to join geometry and it tells you that the walls do not touch. Delete the two flat wall section and recreate. THIS TIME from the core centerline of the arch wall up to the building. PRESTO - join geometry works.
#2 - Draw two walls that are straight and at 90 degrees from each other. Then draw an arced wall using the tangent function. The wall will not be dead on accurate. NOW take the same two walls and draw an arced line at 90 degrees with the same radius on it and it will work. (maybe it was late and just me but I did this several times and got the same results each time.)
