Multiple stories issue

Anonymous — Wed, 24 May 2023 10:43:37 GMT

Hi guys I'm on a bit of trouble with Archicad and I don't know how to solve it.

I have two buildings with an interior connection where the slabs of both buildings are at different heights and I've chosen the building on the left to define my stories heights. The problem is when I get to the 3rd floor my walls are bellow the baseline of the third story so Archicad moves them to the 2nd story.

Is there a way I can manually lock the walls to the third floor but keep their baseline bellow the third floor line? Or Is there any other way I can solve this?

I've added an image to illustrate the issue. Thanks guys

Yes, try this:

1. Select the walls in the dropped slabs
2. Go to the settings (Ctr+T / Cmnd+T)
3. Set the Home story and Wall top to the desired Levels AND set the Offset needed.
4. Now make sure the walls are showing in Floor plan to "Floor Plan Range"
5. Voila, they should appear properly in your plans

Hope it helps

Regards

Yep, correct.

Well, I think then we just need to ignore the Wall top field.

isn't it?

Hi, thanks for your help, I will try it! I had already re-started moving everything (Another person passed me the project). I also should update my signature, I'm using AC 17
