Curve Resolution & Accuracy Issues

Anonymous — Wed, 24 May 2023 06:19:25 GMT

Hello. I'm a beginner in Archicad. Is there any fix for this issue? Somehow it seems that there is an uneven segmentation of this slab and wall. How can it be fixed so it gets even?
It also seems that this segmentation is affecting the section accuracy. There is a gap about 1mm occur.
Any help is appreciated

I suggest as you don't build this like that in real life ( concrete floor needs to lay on top of brick with full thickness ) you would have to lower the wall to underneath the slab. If you like to show this for artistic reasons, then change the slab side to the same material as the brick wall, that should fix it.

yes. it's just an example. But what bothers me is the segment. I don't know if it's caused by my mistake on modelling, but I'm sure that I place the wall and slab perfectly aligned until I zoom in on the section drawing. Is it normal ?

The segmentation is normal it's a default in ARCHICAD, unless you use magic wand. If the wall and and slab start on the same corner and finish on the same corner then the segments should line up as illustrated in my screen shot 1. ( blue lines when you select an element and zoom in )
The only reason I can think of with your section not lining up is that the slab and wall don't start on the same corner. Illustrated in 2nd screen shot. ( red lines slab segments locations, yellow wall segments locations )
If you unlucky and the segment of the slab start half way compared to the wall, then you sure see it in the section. Saying this for buildings it is probably way within the aloud margin.
