As a wall is modeled, all aspects of that wall's functions are considered—the structural usage, the type of wall, and even architectural considerations. Also within the initial design of a wall, the cover for reinforcing is specified. Learning how to create and work with wall systems is a must, but it is easy to accomplish.
Walls, like slabs, floors, and roofs, are unique in that they are all system families. This means they are completely controlled, manipulated, and created within the current structural model.
