Irregular shape wall

How do I create and edit an irregular shape wall in Aecosim v8i SS5? See attached plan view. I used solid extrusion but not able to increase / decrees the height of the wall using "modify form" (Z > 4) command in structural design tab. Which is the best way to create and modify?

  • Did you use the 'Form Modelling >  Extrude Shape to Free Form' tool or the 'Solid Modelling > Solid by Extrusion' tool?

    Forms have the height, base, width and length concepts so respond to the Modify Form tool, whereas ordinary Solids don't have these so must be modified with the solid modelling tools, in this case 'Modify Solid Entity' (the push/pull tool).

  • Used solid modelling > solid  extraction tool. Is any other tool to create irregular shape walls? Is form modelling only the option?

  • Using Cut Solid by Curve is another option. Allowing more modifications and it works with regular walls.
