What is the best way to create these elements? For stucco pop-outs around a window I was thinking the beam tool but that logic says why not the column tool so is there a reason why one is better then the other? Or maybe a better way altogether? As for the parapet walls, is it better to create the int. wall, then the roof and then place the parapet wall on top of the roof? My question stems from rendering the structure. Is there a better way to achieve the ext. color on the inside of the parapet wall above the roof but be able to do a different color on the int. wall below the roof? Also, I have parapet walls that carry aesthetic value only. Is the solid element tool the best way to cut the structural wall from the parapet so that the aesthetic parapet rests on the roof or do I need to build 3 separate walls? I have tried to attach the model but 256 kb is the largest file size and mine is 449kb
