Mass Floor Q3

zs-17 — Sun, 26 Jul 2020 05:02:53 GMT

If I want to place 2 stacked mass floors; the first one 20cm thickness of concrete, the second 10cm as screed and material finish floor. How to do it as a mass floor in a condition to follow the irregular shape of the exterior walls?

What issues are you experiencing? Are you saying the mass floor isn't bounded by the mass wall faces? Maybe some pictures would help? Or the file itself?

The below illustration is to show 2 stacked floors above each other. the below is 20cm of concrete on Level 1 with zero offsets. the above is a floor of 10 cm with 10 offsets of Level 1. How to do it using the Mass Floor?

compound layered floor doesn't work for you?

Hard for me to know for sure what the best approach is, but this screenshot shows Walls and Floors (2 on same Level) created using the Massing tools and the Site & Massing Tab.

Using one floor with layers then use a vois to cut the exceed. Or add a level and generate two mass floors 10 cm apart.

I didn't understand this: Using one floor with layers then use a vois to cut the exceed. I appreciate it if you send,e steps om how to do it. I would like to learn about it.

Steps:

- create a mass
- create a level intersecting the masss
- create floor by face from the mass and the level, using a compound floor type with one layer of 20 cm, and one layer of 10 cm
- the floor edge is plumb so you need to use a void to cut it of the mass is sloped, or create wall by face from the same mass and join it with the floor, then hide the wall

If you sent steps for one floor with 2 layers as the attached illustration, that's actually isn't what I'm looking for. I need to create 2 independent floors above each other.

Then add 2 levels 10 cm apart and generate 2 floors by face from the same mass. Is already been said in the first response of mine. The rest of the steps are the same.
