Re: Floor and wall gap

Dorin.

There is too many things to explain.
I've made my own variant.

Thank you very much for helping with this.

The variant you made shows the issue with rooms drawn on a wall versus inside a wall.
The concrete slab at elevation 0" is below the foundation-riser level's base elevation of 0" because the room for that level is inside the walls. A new version of the test plan I shared now uses the room inside the foundation of your variant (instead of the unnecessary separate slab level).

The variant you shared has a room height below the mezzanine floor of approximately 90". The height in the version I shared is 96". The difference shows the reason I went back to basics to figure out floors. I wanted the floor to rest on the top of the 96" high walls. Instead I was putting them at 89" high inside the walls. Then when I added the walls from the next higher story, the walls would be too low.

To show the room heights, I added a standing measuring pole to the two plans, and share the links to them below. The pole is standing inside the ground floor near the garage door (and sticks out of roof).

Variant with measuring pole: https://www.dropbox.com/s/v0kuw9e5q8f7u0r/testoffloor_2023-04-03a.sh3d?dl=0

New test plan with relabeled levels, deleted slab level, a few added upper attic walls, and the measuring pole. https://www.dropbox.com/s/ob0378i3ndsmmd0/testoffloor_2023-04-04.sh3d?dl=0

Measuring pole is of grouped alternating white and black 6" high boxes stacked on end. It can be dragged around the plan where you want to measure the heights. Maybe this is why some people asked for a tool for height dimensions.

RE: 1/8" thick floors.
They were for levels that did not have floors, and I did not know how to remove a floor from a level since they could not be set to 0". Now I will just ignore them.

Keet.
Thank you for the useful tips on handling the roof generation output and source information.

Re: Floor and wall gap

If you think it is correct it's OK.
One suggestion:
Subtract from walls height (Mezzanine) the thickness of upper room (floor, upper attic). 55"-6" to avoid a Z fight.

Re: Floor and wall gap

Thank you very much for walking me through thinking aloud about what the floor function does, and how to use it. I will definitely avoid a Z fight and adjust the heights accordingly.

Your roof program is a gem. Thank you so much.
