Changing an external wall to a different construction type

Post by Howler »

Good morning,

I have set up the building construction types in the the Building Template Manager. I have one room that is on the corner of my building that is slightly different to the rest. How can I edit the one external wall and assign a different construction make up to that of the other "standard" wall type defined?

Thanks for your assistance.

You can edit the construction using the Apache Construction database manager.

To assign a construction

1. Select "Assign Constructions".
2. Select the category (external wall) and then the current construction type that is assigned
3. Select the replacement construction type and click on Replace to assign that construction.

This is covered in the Apache Construction Database user guide which you can view by selecting the link below or by selecting Help>user Guides.
