For information on how intersections (junctions) work among construction elements:
The following other features also affect Wall intersections:
•Columns and Walls
See Column Display.
•The Connect commands can trim Walls to Roofs or Shells.
See Trim Elements to Roof or Shell.
•You can also crop a Wall to a Single-plane Roof.
See Crop Elements to Single-plane Roof.
•The Adjust Elements to Slabs function lets you adjust Walls to specific levels of one or more Slabs that are located above and/or below them.
•Walls can be connected to Curtain Walls using the Design > Connect > Join Wall(s) to Curtain Wall command.
See Join Wall to Curtain Wall.
•Relation to Zones: In the Listing and Labeling Panel of Wall settings, define how the Wall should behave in relation to zones: as a zone boundary (delimiter), or whether its area/volume should be subtracted from the zone it is in, or whether it should have no effect at all on a zone.
See Relation to Zones.
When connected to other, plain walls, wall polygons keep their original contour by default.
If you wish to override this setting, check the PolyWall Corners Can Change box in the Geometry and Positioning section of the Wall Settings dialog box (available when the PolyWall geometry method is active).
In the following example, a Single Wall is connected to a Wall Polygon.
The first illustration shows you the situation with View > On-Screen View Options > Clean Wall & Beam Intersections turned Off.
Turning Clean Wall & Beam Intersections On will give a different results depending on whether PolyWall Corners Can Change is active.
