"Y" wall intersection?

Anonymous

It is possible to make it?
When I join two of them the other jumps out.
How?

Thank you in advance.

These can be a bit tricky sometimes. You need to adjust the reference lines so they all join neatly. If it seems impossible to get right use a polygon wall to make the corner and just butt the three walls into it.

Try to change the reference line in these walls to be in the center.

I've found y-junctions to be a bit of nightmare myself especially when using complex profile walls with linings on them. The linings often cut through or the walls done trim properly no matter how I fiddle with the reference lines. I often have to resort to applying a 2D fill over the walls to hide any unconformity which makes it look okay in plan view - as long as they are looking right in 3D.

Just talking in general:
When a Wall intersection just cannot be made to work you can create that portion using a Polygonal Wall.
Or you can create a Profile with the section of that intersection, assign it to a Column and place that Column into that intersection.
