AC25 Composite Wall wrapped ending

Vivijanoz — Tue, 09 May 2023 12:01:04 GMT

Hi, I'm having some trouble replicating a wall ending in Archicad...

This is what I'm looking too achieve.

And this is the closest I can make it...

Please help me understand these wall endings😅

You cannot use the Wall End tool to add thickness to your wall. Well, other than the cased end option but that basically ignores your wall... If you are wanting the insulation and cladding to wrap around you will need to create another Composite that has it on both sides or use a Complex column.

Ughh okay thanks... This makes things a bit more difficult.

Since we have this "Return End" wall ending I would have imagined there was a "wrap around" wall ending tool somewhere where you can select a number of skins to wrap around.

Hopefully in the future.🤔

Is this maybe added in A26?

Just continue your wall and turn it back on itself.

Don't you get a duplicate wall doing that? As the BMs will not intersect given their reference lines do not intersect? Though I guess SEOing it might work?

Not a complete duplicate as they don't fully overlap, but there is a collision of the center leaf.

An SEO will fix that, but I am not sure I would worry about it too much unless quantities are needed.
