I have a project that requires some false exterior columns. Might be best to call these bump-outs. I am needing some suggestions on how to achive the desired results. I have a revit file with 2 walls types, ref planes to show desired wall locations, and text explaining what is needed. Also there is an image link. For those that would rather read this thread, here you go:
Let's say you have a wall brick on CMU wall that is 10' long and in the middle is a bump-out that is 8" from the face, and 2' wide. The bump-out is made from Brick on 3 5/8" metal stud, with no gyp on the inside. What is the best way to remove the brick & rigid insulation from the section of CMU behind the bump-out? Also how do you handle the wierd wall joins that Revit gives you?
I tried splitting the wall and making the segment behind the column a different wall type with no brick & insulation, but i kept getting funky wall joins. I used the wall joins tool and never got a desirable joint.
If you grab the revit file and know how to do these things, please do so and repost the file. I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks in advance to all that respond!
