Brick wall alignment
I just bought Pro 9.0
I am designing a new house plan for myself. The walls are 6" with brick exterior. The foundation is 10" concrete.
There seems to be a problem aligning the main floor over the foundation. When I use the align above or below tool Pro will align the framing and leave the brick hanging in mid air. If I try to align the walls manually using above or below reference it looks OK in plan view but 3D will build a roof on top of the foundation as well as the main roof. If I delete the unwanted roof there appears to be a 1” ledge at the top of the foundation that isn’t apparent in plan view.
VERY FRISRTATING!
Any suggestions?

There is a foundation wall type with a 4" brick ledge..

Hey Allen
Thanks man.
It seems to have done the trick.
The reason I didn't use this type of foundation is that I figured "brick ledge" as the step down type used to lower the brickline closer to grade rather than flat.
Thanks again

Hi Stali
You're welcome.
Not sure if you can adjust the height of the ledge or not..Don't work on many brick houses..Allen Colburn Jr.
