4 walls connection in ][ shape

Hello, how to make walls situated in this way: ][ (i.e. vertical walls are close together or are located side by side with no gap between them; horizontal walls are joined only with vertical walls and they make right angle - horizontal walls do not connect with each other)? I have to have four seperate right angle connections to use AGACAD program to generate studs in right way. But Revit connects the horizontal walls...

You can try to split the horizontal wall and join each half with one of the vertical wall (using Trim tool).

Another way is to disallow join for the two horizontal walls and join geometry each one of them manually with one of the vertical walls.

Hard to visualize the actual framing condition you want AGACAD to make at that intersection.   

 

Is this what you are trying to do in Revit?

This is how I interpret your description and screenshot.

1 way: horizontal walls connect automatically

 

2 way: Visually, the architecture looks ok. But AGACAD cannot see the wall connection at this point, so it does not generate the structure correctly.

@barthbradley, see the screenshot above.

Use #1 approach,  but duplicate the horizontal wall type and use one type for the left and another for the right.

Unfortunately, horizontal walls connect.

A solution has been found! You have to set different worksets for two pairs of walls. Then the connections are made the way I need to.
