Creating Slabs with Both Automatically Bounded and Manual EdgesCreating Slabs with Both Automatically Bounded and Manual EdgesIn order to work in a broad variety of construction situations, slabs allow each edge to be either bounded by a wall or manual. If a slab is split, the existing bounded wall associations are maintained for edges that abut a wall, and the newly split edges are manual. Each slab edge can be given a unique component edge offset, as needed.
To create a slab that is automatically bounded to existing walls on some edges and manual on others:
Click the Slab tool from the Building Shell tool set, and select Picked Walls mode from the Tool bar.
If you want to create a new slab style, click Preferences from the Tool bar; see Creating Slab Styles.
Click Slab Style on the Tool bar. From the Resource Selector, locate the desired resource, and double-click to activate it.
Click each wall that forms the wall set and press Enter, or click the check mark button on the Tool bar.
The slab is created; manual edges are automatically created as needed to complete the slab’s geometry.
