How to Make Sure Elements Collide for Best Cleanup Results
Use this function (Edit > Reshape > Adjust Elements to Slabs) to easily adjust elements (Walls, Columns, or horizontal Beams) to specific levels of one or more Slabs that are located above and/or below them.
Suppose you are migrating an older-version ARCHICAD file in which the Wall bases are placed on the tops of Slabs. As of ARCHICAD 17, the Walls can extend past the Slab’s finish level to its core, which is what you want. To speed up this process, select multiple Walls and then use the Adjust Elements to Slabs command to extend them all to the Slab core with a single click.
Note: If a Door/Window is linked to the bottom of a Wall, the Adjust Elements to Slabs command will automatically recalculate the offset to retain the opening position.
