I am trying to do a small addition to a house. I am having trouble with the foundation plan. The foundation is a slab on grade. I draw the floor plan with the walls, openings etc. I need to show the foundation as drawing in the plan set showing the spacing of the vertical rebar coming out of the slab, and notes regarding footing size, slab thickness, etc.
I tried to save the floor plan as a foundation plan, delete the items that are not necessary, add slab, and check the structural box. When i look at the 3D tab, my walls are twice as tall( if i delete the walls, i loose everything.). I know i am not doing something in the right order, or most likely not following the right procedure.
I have been using Softplan for a little while. When I lived in Michigan,I did a couple houses, but they had full basements. Now I am in Florida where everything is slab on grade.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
