structural walls - are not!(?) -

[Vito Rosa]

Good morning, everyone.
after a useless research on the topic structural walls I decided to ask the following questions, trusting in the knowledge of some attendant of the forum:
Does a structural wall have to have different behaviors than an architectural wall?
from my experience it seems not. In fact also selecting structural wall, the type of wall that is selected is generic xx wall but above all what I think does not work is in the junction with other non-structural walls. When they join, even in a squadron, a structural wall and a non-structural one is in fact carried out a height of their extremes which therefore entails a modification of the length of the structural wall, which is not good if that structural wall is a sect and that extreme is a fixed thread.
the solution that I found is to use a pillar of the size of the sect, but it is a little uncomfortable in practice when two pillars must be connected and the fusion between contiguous elements does not occur.
another solution was to create a family starting from the structural pillar family. In this way I managed to realize a set of variable sizes for stretching, which facilitates insertion in the design. However, this type of set is hidden in case of cross-section with other base walls.
Do you have suggestions?

what you say is partly true, but keep in mind that the "angle joint" has specific properties that can be selected (head/angle/calculated/not calculated)
normally the union takes place on the axis line of the walls, with priority of union of equal layers.
in the structural wall there are parameters (structural) with are not present in the achitettonic one, as well as in the graphic visualization, selecting "structural" is represented only the structure ....
on the speech of the sects, which in my opinion are more similar to structural pillars (which not to the walls) you enter into other evaluations and modes of representation ...

Hello! !
I have the same problem as the boy, but I have understood the solution, I explain: the structural walls as you know enter the basic modification of the program and are bent, shortened etc... automatically, is there a possibility to lock a wall?? ? Until now I had used the Pillar Family by changing the size but now I am faced with the problem of having to wash this wall and the Pillar Family prevents me from... How can I do that??? thanks in advance! ! !
