Plaster priority in wall junction

Anonymous — Wed, 24 May 2023 06:51:40 GMT

Hi,

I need help with priorities in materials.
There are two basic types of wall:
- Brick wall with plaster
- Concerete wall with plaster

Of course plaster is something that should be around all wall perimeters after the core brick and concrete is built.

At the moment there are basic setting of materials:
- Plaster - 210
- Brick - 540
- Conceret - 750

There are two places where the plaster is shown incorrect (yellow color), although the brick and concrete core layers are excatly as I need.

How am I supposed to fix it ?

Check out this thread where I offer a solution to such situations:

Laszlonagy, thanks very much and sorry I didn't find this thread before.

I'm a bit worried, I have something like 10 000 walls intersecting in different ways, some of them in hotlinks, some with different type of finish (mostly plaster but also stone)..... this is going to be mordor to make it look properly.

...simple plaster.

Maybe the complex structures should recognize finish layers with additional .....aaaa..... next wish to be published.

I guess then you should start by assessing which solution results in the lowest number of intersections to fix.

For example, you can increase the Priority Number of the plaster's Building Material to 760. Then it will give correct result at L-joints at corners, but it will cut across the brick and concrete at T-joints.

You can estimate which gives you fewer intersections to fix: plaster with 210 intersection priority number or plaster with 760.
