Hi, Using 2009 rac.

I am working on a project where there are 2 walls side by side (see image below) Blue wall is the structural wall and grey is our architectural wall.

 

Firstly they have to be seperate walls and not a compound wall.

 

I need to put doors in. I have different ways around this from editing one of the wall profiles. Placing an opening in one of the walls. or adding in a second BLANK door.

 

Can i ask how other people deal with this.

One question.

If you join them, will wall tags reflect each wall's info?

I had the same problem, but I solved it by doing a wall opening on one wall and placing the door in the other. Sort of does the trick... and keeps the walls independent from each other...

The join geometry works without losing the definitions of each wall.  Therefore the walls still tag and no need to use the opening, just the one door.
