Wall style

[Rishie]

Hi, I would like to create a wall with a thicker bottom that transitions at the window sill level. (Please refer to the attached image for reference.)

What is the best method to achieve this wall type in Vectorworks? Also, is there an option to give the cladding a rounded edge instead of a sharp one, as shown in the screenshot above?

You could use two Walls, one on top of the other. And use a 'Wall Hole Cutter' symbol inserted in the wall to achieve the roundover on the top edge of the bottom wall.

 

See this thread for how to create these symbols:

 

I use them to create plinth stretcher courses so you could just do the same but with a rounded cut-out rather than angled:

 

 

As long as the roundover could be accommodated in the thickness of the render component.
