Wall Connection

Hi

I can't make these walls connect well. I tried the trim command, drag its ends, both ways didn't work. Any way to fix it?

Can you add some dimensions to this, or indicate the thickness of the walls?  Revit sometimes struggles with wall joins where walls are very short.

You can try the Wall joins command (Under Modify) and tab through those options - it may sort out your issue.

Hi

Yes, they are small walls, its thickness 30 cm. The dimensions in the attachment file are in metric units (126 cm, 112 cm, and 186 cm). The join command doesn't work since they are already joined. I also have the same problem with 15cm wall thickness.

It shouldn't be a problem for those walls, although you may have troubles depending on how the walls are shaped above.

I was not referring to joining the walls, but how the walls are joined.

Yes. I think it can be solved by the Join Wall option. But for now, I don't know how to use it, I tried without to succeed. I will look for a tutorial on how to use this option and fix it.

Thank you for your help.

If you don't come right, copy the walls to a blank project and post it here.  The walls that I drew work fine, with the same dimensions (mine are mm), so you should be able to join them.

The Join Option didn't solve my problem. I ave this problem with my all shot walls even with 90 degree walls with any thickness.

Copy a wall into a blank project and post it here.  the length of your walls should not be a problem.  It becomes a problem when the length is similar to the width.

 

You can also check:

Are the joins above different to the current level?

Are the walls orientated correctly?

Check this - your joins need to Allow Join.  The join symbol indicates that joins have been disallowed.

They are disallowed because I tried many things to fix the problem. When I created the walls they were allowed to join. I tried to turn around the problem, I disallowed the join option, then I aligned the walls, it looks like if they are joined in top view. But actually, the problem still exists. I didn't have this problem before now with any wall.

I'm not sure why you say that the problem still exists.  These are from the file that you posted.

Can you show me what you did to solve it? I mean step by step to compare it to what I do.

In both instances, I allowed wall joins.  They still didn't join properly, so I pulled the join apart and used trim to rejoin them.
