2nd Story and Attic Space
I have a pretty complex plan that includes a full second story and a series of attic rooms over the garages. I drew the plan originally with all the attic rooms and all the upstairs rooms laid out, but when I go to do an auto roof, the auto roof ends up to be much more complex than what is on my architects drawings. I have more roof lines than are needed.
So my question is. When dealing with rooms over the garages and "bonus" rooms, especially ones that have lower floors, do you lay them out upstairs as they are drawn on the architects plans, or do you not draw them at all and let the software automatically generate the attic space for these and then go in and lay out the room and lower and raise the rooms as needed? I haven't been able to get a best practice on this. My roof have a bunch of gables and a good deal of pitches that all need to get tied in.
Thanks.
