Help, Newbie... Slab on grade foundation need help

Anonymous — Tue, 23 May 2023 13:39:13 GMT

HELP!
I am trying to get the 45 degree hump in a foundation cutaway. I have two roof slabs under the foundation, one is at the footing area to where the 45 degree starts and the other 1' back from that edge to where the top of the 45 ends. How do I get something in there to get it cut away.

Thank You

if they're roofs then you can set the angle of any edge using the pet palette

I hate to be so dumb, but what is the PET pallette? I am using the student 8.1 version and on a Mac.

Thanks.

I have a copy of my wall section to show what I have. All I want to do is pull the upper roof slab bottom edge to the top edge of the lower roof slab.

the pet palette is, for me, one of the best things about ac

select an element on the floor plan. now 'press' the mouse button on a node or an edge. the pet palette will appear. and follow your cursor around

the pet palette gives you tools for manipulating or modifying the element (the last icon on the palette usually switches between these modes)

the content of the pet palette usually varies depending on whether you press on a node or an edge

experiment. it's essential for efficient working in ac (and some commands, like roof edge angle, are only available here)

!!!!!!!

Thank You. When I select an edge and set the custom angle to 135, my edge comes out the way I want it.
