I am drawing in walls which consist of 6" stud and brick. There are several 4 to 6" bumpouts in the wall. I have attached two images. The first, AutoCAD View, is what it is supposed to look like. When I draw them in Revit, I cannot get them to look right. The second image, Revit View, is what I am getting. Can somebody give me suome guidance on fixing this? Thanks, in advance. Mike

Did you use the "Join Gemetry" between them???? The layers have the exactly same name and material???

Revit sucks at those type of connections, Playing around with the disalow join when rightclicking in the little bleu circel when selecting a wall and the join geometry could help, but if the design isnt going to change much i suggest just making it as good as possible looking in 3d and elevation and the masking region your plan.

Step One http://screencast.com/t/9zCq2reN Step Two http://screencast.com/t/Dh6DNq4K That message about wall overlapping, just change the thickness of the stud in the second wall so that you don't get that message. HTH

I wanted to add to this thread because I was having the same issue and @Coreed screencasts no longer work. Here's my solution:
- I have an exterior wall that has brick over CMU. I duplicated that wall, and added an additional structure layer with 6" metal stud (I want my bumpouts to be 6").
- Using the wall tool with the original brick over CMU wall type selected, draw your wall jogging it the desired dimensional amount. In my case it was 6".
- Select all the sections of wall that are "bumped out" from the main wall surface. Change those wall-types to the duplicated version you created in step 1.
- Use the align tool, to align the interior or exterior face of the CMU (or primary structural layer). Now the other layers of the wall (finish, insulation etc.) wrap around the bump out as desired.
See image for reference below. Hope this helps!
