Hi all,

 I am learning Revit Building 8 by drawing our existing home. When I get proficient enough the plan is to do an addition to it Smile

 The problem I am having is in drawing the basement which is a daylight basement where the back side is 6.5" bluemaxx icf which transitions to a 2x6" framed wall in the front. The basement size is 52' x 28' of which the wood framed side is 52' x 10' and the concrete side 52'x18'.

 I was able to draw the concrete size using a Basic Wall - foundation 6" concrete (I had to derive this from the 12" concrete wall). I then added the front wall using Basic Wall - generic 6". The problem I am having is that the generic wall interior surface lines up with the center line of the concrete wall even though both of them have their 'location line' set to 'wall center line'. I have scoured the docs, peered through all the dialogs and menus etc and can't seem to find the reason for this and how to fix this3" offset which shows up on the drawing. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 TIA,

 bakki

Cut a section through your wall then use your align tool to align the correct faces.

Use the Align tool to line up the wall faces. The location line does not mean that the walls will necessarily line up with each other along those lines.
