FLOOR/WALL CONSTRAINTS

Floor/Wall Constraints

Using 3D modeling, all building interfaces and junctions are being exposed. For example, it is
also the case for the cavity between the ceiling and the floor structure.

It is recommended to use the Wall feature to compensate for these features theat results in a
more perfect expression, for example, in ceiling heights changing or regarding the floor offset.

Additional task – Floor/Wall constraints

Purpose: to understand how front partition slab and wall partitions and modeled:
1. First model a front partition slab in the double-height room, on the edge of the 1. floor
slab:

Navigate to ”(01) Stue” in Project Browser, make a Duplicate of View’et and name it
”Stue Dækforkant”

2. Select the new View and set the View Range to cut 3000 mm above floor level

3. Start Wall tool and select wall type”Interior –
Generic 120 mm”,
In Properties set Base Constraint to “Loft Stue”
and Top Constraint to “(02) 1. Sal”
Now draw a wall from grid D5 to D9

4. Use the same method to model a wall partition on 1. Floor from grid C5 to E5 where the
ceiling height changes.
