All right, then I have to move some ceiling area lines to figure out what ceiling areas to delete.

So:

Method 2, mirrors all wall volumes, incl. wall design all ceiling areas incl. ceiling design?? But that requires of course that there are no walls and no ceiling areas at the right side of the house. Let's say there are 10 walls at the left side of the house. Is wall 1 then mirrored into a new wall, with number 11 - and the same princip for the other walls and ceilings??

Method 1, here wall volumes and ceiling areas have to be made first, so that it is possible to assign the objects to the correct walls. Otherwise wall 1 will have objects that belongs to both it self and the mirrored copy.

Hi. It seems like I have 3 ceiling areas, that are copies of other 3 ceiling areas - but without any construction objects. Since they are positioned on top of the other 3 ceiling areas (but not with exact same heights - I can't delete them in ceiling areas. When I try to delete them in D-Cam's building Mos, nothing happens.

Hi. I have a 2 storey house that contains 2 apartments - one apartment on the left of the house's centerline and one to the right. The apartment to the right is a mirrored copy of the apartment to the left. Now I am designing this house as modules, and I would like to mirror the modules to the left, that I am finished with, in order to check if the mirrored drawaings I am making, are correct. I think there are 2 ways to do it:

1) In D-Cam select the parts that belongs to the module and mirror it. Then in the mirrored module to select the parts that belongs to a wall or ceiling and assign it to the correct wall or ceiling in building Mos. Advantage: This works fine. Disadvantage is if not all wall volumes and in my case especially ceiling areas are made in the mirrored module in advance.

2) To mirror in groundplan. This I have not really tried before, with construction objects. What is the advantages and disadvantages in this method?

Finally I had succes to finish cutting all similar beams. What, to my opnion, normally works best is to work with precision and to make male objects that are temporarily bigger than they should be.

I think next time I am going to make a stair like this, I would probably like to have the stair module... But this time I didn't have time to wait to get it, and I also think it is good practice to make a stair like this manually - before using automatic software to do it.

Aah yeah, precision - I remember that now. What other cutting or intersection methods are you thinking about?

Hi. I have tried and tried to cut this triangle piece of wood off, with intersecting volumes, but with no success.

Absolutely interesting candidates. Here are some links to the projects: http://www.architecture.at/por…&bid=207&sound=on&lang=en and http://www.architecture.at/news.php?lang=en&sound=on and http://www.waughthistleton.com/project.php?name=murray&img=1

Hi - are there other candidates for "worlds tallest wooden building"??

Cool... Thank you - that I would never have figured out...

Good morning...

Now I am sufficient tired of this, so here is the position attached.

Edit: Attachment deleted.

As far as I can read, the article says it is one of the highest - and (maybe) not the highest. I would like to read the article in English, is that possible? I am asking because I want to built the highest wooden house in the world, so I want to know what is today's highest. It would be very sad, if I find out too late that I should have added 2 stories more... :roll:
In Denmark there were plans to built 4 8 storey houses, and I was about to get hold on that project - but the people behind the project gave up - unfortunately... See here http://www.osterbo.dk/Files/Bi…jekter/traehus_folder.pdf
I know it is in Danish, but you can see the picture.

Half of the house was mirrored at Z-Y, but this was a mistake at that time, why I made an undo to that operation. It is only the two exterior walls at the upper left corner that has a problem. If in D-cam I select these two walls and hide them, the rest of the construction is zoomed correct.

I can't find anything. Perhaps I will send the project. But for now I will let it be, it's not very important. But if anybody have other ideas, just let me know.

Yes of course...

Hi.

What is world's tallest wooden building??? I have found russian gangster's 13 storey wooden house - but is that the answer?

They are too small on the screen.

I have 2 walls, that cannot be zoomed to fill the screen. This seems also to affect groundplan view and D-cam plan view. I have checked if some of the walls should not be connected. It worked before, I was just working with making drawings.

Hi.
The feature to take out material lists for a project is a great feature, but the function could be improved a lot. One thing is that it should be possible to output to Excel or similar programs of choice. Secondly the list should automatically assemble all wood of same type and size (47x75 and 75x47 is in the same list). Attached is an example of how the resulting list could be looking like. This is made on a small project, by copying the timberlists from drawings into excel and modifying the data. For example the number of pieces 3x, should be exported to excel as 3, so that these cells can be used to create formulas from. Perhaps Dietrichs could use excel formulas for calculations.

Hi. When you select to view wall numbers you also get the window and door numbers. I could wish that to view the door and window numbers was an option, because they disturb and I never used them, so far. Perhaps another option could be to show wall names, because for production, wall names are more usefull than just numbers. Another option could be to show wall numbers / names for a selection of walls - because some walls one just make for secondary items.
