Hello
I was wondering if anyone here can help me
I will try to explain, dnt have any pics on my PC yet of my situation but I will upload if no1 can understand what I need explained ,lol
Anyway!
I have to draw in archicad a fairly simple square house for a project for university 1 of my subjects but i am not too sure on how to represent a sloping site? coz the walls are diff heights at each point, going in accordance with the slope of course, but they all meet at the same common level just before the roof. I hope this makes sense to someone and they can help me! Thanks

You need to draw wall segments with their top elevations the same
but their bottom elevations to follow the sloping grade and whatever
penetration into the ground you need. These dimensions can be
adjusted once you have drawn enough wall segments so that
when you adjust their bottom elevations you will have a stepping
foundation.

How do I go about drawing wall segments? And also, how do I go about drawing a sloping site? 😕
