Hi all

I do have problem in joining properly foundation wall with eccentricity.

If the eccentricity is maximum i cannot join wall foundation.

What is the best way to model it?

Trying Unjoining.  Then resize and Join.

You can always grip stretch the foundation farther out and use align tool.

The only way I could get it to look like what i think you want was to change to a Retaining Footing and set the toe to '0'

I had no problem with your footing. All you need to do is disallow automatic wall join and join manually (via Join Geometry).

Hi.

I find out that better solution is to model them as Structural Floor and add a parameter ''Foundation'' in Type Comments or similar in order to better sort and/or schedule them.
