View Full Version : Wall Join Problem

Can anyone help me with this - I have 3x walls of different thicknesses, but same exterior material and I cant get rid of the join lines in elevation/ 3d etc...its creating me a real headache (by the way, this project is still in release 9)

Even using the linework tool (invisible lines) is a problem, since it gets rid of the edge of the wall line where the opening appears (in perspective, I seem to loose the controls for the extent of the linework)

You may need to check the end grips of the walls to see if the wall join has been disalowed. (Select wall>right click on end grip) If either wall says "Allow Join" in the dialog box, select it and see if this resolves the issue.

I had a look at the attached file, I opened it in Revit Structure so the properties may be a little different but I believe the reason it is not joining is because the corner pier is bearing and the walls each side are set to non-bearing, so automatically they are not joining

You are right Benmay. I set that wall to non-bearing and it joined just fine.

Thanks ever so much...beers all around.

A bit strange thou (Ill live with it), but whether the 'structure' in the wall is load bearing of not, shouldnt affect how the cladding works!
