Now that we have the very welcome Wall Closure feature I would love to have support for 'cavity closers'.**
'Cavity closers' are used in cavity wall construction around openings in the walls—in particular windows and doors—to protect against water ingress, damp, heat loss, condensation and smoke. In some types of construction they're also used to inhibit the spread of smoke and fire in concealed spaces; in the UK their name changes to Cavity Barrier in this case.
I'd like to be able to show these on our 1:50 floor plans and sections.
