Slab level of deck and porch
I have 2 rooms with invisible walls to make outdoor areas - but they don't seem to have the same floor level as the indoor areas of the house...
I have specified the floor to be a Monolithic Slab and have no basement on the house - how can i make the outdoor areas also have a slab at the same level?

Mell,
I have a plan with an outdoor area bordered by 3 exterior walls and 1 invisible wall. In the Room Attributes DBX, the room type is set to Slab, the floor height is 0 and the B and C heights are set the same as the interior rooms. eg. A=0, B=97 1/8, C=97 1/8.
Now, that will leave you with another issue. Since the slab thickness is only 4", it will leave a gap between the bottom of the slab and the terrain. I filled the gap with a sofit the same height and length as the gap, lowered the soffit so it fit under the slab and used the material painter to match colors.
