ChiefBrad52 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Im using Home Designer Pro 2016. When I Build framing the program creates too many floor joists. Im new and not an architect but all i want is I-Joists straight across my building and when it creates them it looks like some of the area is right but then it doubles them up in different areas. In build framing the spacing is at 16" so I'm not sure why it overrides this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiefBrad52 Posted January 22, 2016 Author Share Posted January 22, 2016 Thanks Eric, Hopefully you can steer me in the right direction here, I've attached the plan file and changed my signature. TriplexAdditionOnly.plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solver Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 If you build the wall framing you will see the doubles are supporting walls. I rarely do framing, and cannot run Pro to investigate further. I do believe you can manually frame the floor structure however you like, or you could auto frame the floor, turn off auto framing and edit what was generated.

Eric That is what I did -- use auto frame and edit. I noticed extra joists as well -- didn't know why but do now. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidJPotter Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 When I generate roof planes I always then manually edit the result to get what I want. The same is true for framing, you carefully set defaults and settings and then manually edit that result as well. DJP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
