Wall-to-Wall Flush Join – Composite Difference

[Nikola Radojicic]

Hi everyone,

I'm dealing with a small wall junction issue and could use some advice.

I'm trying to connect two walls with different composites and thicknesses. I want the thicker wall (EW1A) to stop flush at the face of the thinner wall (EW3A), essentially acting like a clean finish return, not overlapping or protruding past EW3A.

I tried using the End Wall tool, but that only got me so far.

One workaround I thought was creating a separate composite with just the finish layers of EW1A and placing it manually at every single edge that I have ( and I have them ALOT!!!), but I'm hoping there's a cleaner or more ... simpler method.

Has anyone dealt with a similar problem? Any suggestions, please?
THANKS ^_^

Hi,
That green element is the Wall End, it's not a wall. The reference line is where it needs to be, at the edge of the slab. Farside skin has 430, but sheeding that you see being punctured has 505, so that one is not the problem.
If it were a wall, the connection would be totally different ( image #1). The condition which I am looking for is more likely the one that you are seeing in Image #2, but I would like to have fewer elements involved in that process.
