Best Practices for Taggable Turn-Down Footings???

[bgoldman]

I am working on a footing plan that requires either turn-down concrete footing or grade beams. Because theoretically there is no wall what is the best way to model the footings and still be tag them as footings for scheduling?

I have tried the slab edge method...not taggable.
I have created a lined based footing...it doesn't join the best on corners.
The lined based grade beam works.
Anyone have some better methods?

Okay....no answers....

Well I'm going to draw the stem as a 12" Concrete Wall and attach a footing to it and then add a wall sweep in the shape of the slab haunch. So I now have the profile in section and I can tag it and it joins properly at the corners.

I have experimented with using a retaining footing with the toe at 1/256". It's not perfect, but it works.
