This is a floor plan. How should I draw a wall like this?

If you want walls with skins, then regular composite walls with a column for the connecting parts.

It will be rather tricky to get walls to join in that configuration.

 

Or if you just want a wall mass, you can use the polygon wall geometry method and make the wall any shape you want.

The polygon wall geometry method does not combine with other walls.
Is there a way to combine them?

If the polygon wall has a building material strength equal to or weaker than the composite wall, then there should be no joining line.

As always, I appreciate your answers.
As a brain that has become accustomed to Autodesk, I think I would not have been able to study without you.
But the sad thing is that there are no companies willing to work with ArchiCAD. Most companies are requesting work with REVIT.
This reality really takes away my strength.

Today, I hope that the day will come when ArchiCAD is used in Korea as well. ^^
Have a nice day
