  1. Well, here in this area we lay the foundation out a different way.  Typically, we use block. The surveyor will lay the foundation out to the framing line.  We use a combination of 12" block and 8'' block.  This creates a 4" brick ledge.  And the sill plate and Joist are flush with the outside of the 8" block.  See my sketch.  The foundation contractor will set it out from the framing line 4" if brick will be installed.

  2. Eric, I enjoyed watching your video.  And I've looked through the knowledge info, but I still am not finding a way to generate the foundation so that it lines up with the framing line.  I guess I could draw the plan with just framed walls (no siding, brick, etc.).  Then create the foundation before adding brick stone etc. with the paint tool.
