How can I trim walls that have a turn that is less than the wall thickness?

This is a 10" thick concrete stacked wall with 24" footing. Revit does not like trimming this (turning the plan north/south running portion 90 degrees to the east to join into the wall) because the jog is less

than the wall thickness. What is the best way to resolve this?

Delete the short wall and its footing, then bring the longer walls (the walls running in a parallel direction) and butt them up to each other.

After that, drag one or both of the footing ends out the desired distance using the little blue dot when you select each footing separately:

The result would look similar to this:

Try this approach. Draw three Model Lines in the View and then place the Stacked Wall via Pick Lines method and picking on the Model Lines.

turn wall.JPGI need it like above. Pick lines worked once.  The next time the footing was messed up...  Can't seem to be consistant

with this, I 'll use pick lines as a first option

You want three walls; right? Like the red lines are showing; right?  Three model lines for three walls. Pick the little line first.  Should work. Maybe not.

Try it without the stacked wall. do a basic wall 10" thick and place in the configuration you want.  Then use the wall foundation tool to place the foundation under it.

 

I was able to get a 4" offset on a 10" thick wall with no problem. The walls cleaned up right and looked good. The foundation has 1 little extra line in it. Which I was able to alter with the line work too with a couple of clicks.

loboarch,  you said you were able to fix with a linework tool? As in "model lines?"

No, NOT model lines. Linework tool is a way to "correct" edges when they don't want to represent correctly.  They are view specific.

So in this case I applied an "invisible" line to fix the foundation edge that was not cleaning up right.  Certain geometric situations, like a small jog in a wall, may cause the 3D geometry/representations to kind of "freak out" sometimes because the rules to generate the geometry get weird because of 0 length faces etc... The line work tool lets you correct those kinds of things on the fly sometimes rather than banging your head against the wall attempting to get the geometry perfect or resorting to some kind of in place family situation. 

 

Yes it is only fixed in one view and yes it takes some extra clicks, but often times it gets the job done for the 1 or 2 places you see the problem, and you can move on with the project.
