Wall

Hello.I have a plan in the form of a submitted photo. But I do not know how to show the walls as shown in the photo. Without creating walls of different thicknesses.

Yep, that is pretty much how you would do it.... make different wall types of the different thicknesses. I count maybe 5 different wall types? it looks like several of those would be Columns. if the column is the same material as the wall it will merge with the wall.

Why don't you want to use several types? any specific reason? 

You do not need to worry about the layers..you can simply duplicate a Generic Wall and just change thickness...you would need some 10 duplicates ... see colors below + the Circled in red would be columns

Just use Architectural column for all the bump out. When you draw the wall and place architectural column it will merge and the column will inherit the wall material.

Create an architectural column family with instance width and length parameters so that you can stretch it to fit in project.
