WDBofVA Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 I have upgraded to HD Pro in order to use floor trusses. I have been able to define a truss floor between a basement and first floor and its shows properly in a framing overview with 1 exception. For the span involved the truss needs to be 20" tall (height). So I need to adjust the dealt structure so that the Floor thickness (I think that is 'Floor Structure L' in the diagram to 20" (from 12 5/8) and the basement wall height (I thing that is Stem Wall 'I') to 100" (8' + 4" basement slab). I can change 'L' but 'I' change on its own and I cannot edit that. I would like to evaluate the stairs to assure I have room for a proper design. The meaning of the values the structure dialog is vague and their source or math is a mystery - at least to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solution WDBofVA Posted December 3, 2014 Author Solution Share Posted December 3, 2014 I meant that I could not do it because I could not find that dialog box. I did not mean to imply that it might not work. I am still finding my way around Pro. I did eventually find it and it did work. Thank You! A related question. I had to edit ever room in the finished basement to fix the floor evevation that got wacked when I changed the floor height. When I selected several of them, the entry box was not accessable. Is there a trick that would have made that a bit easier? I am now able to get on with my design. Thanks Again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solver Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Is there a trick that would have made that a bit easier? When you change defaults, it changes everything. Go to level 0 (basement), then, Edit > Default Settings > Floor Change as needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
