Main Type of Studs (or Plates) – pick a family and type for the Studs or Plates. 

Sample stud and plate families that come with Wall+:

Metric Stud –  M_WF Stud.rfa

Metric Plate – M_WF Plate.rfa

Imperial Stud – I_WF Stud.rfa

Imperial Plate – I_WF Plate.rfa

Do not use any other families! 

You can use other families only in special cases. Contact us. 

Width (b) – shows the width, b, parameter value of the selected family type.

Depth (h, d) – shows the depth, h or d, parameter value of the selected family type.

Define Depth (h, d) by Layer Thickness – the software will create a new type for the selected family and change the depth value to the wall layer thickness so that the frames will fit the layer in the wall.

Wall Frame Panels – if ON, then wall frames are assembled in factory; if OFF – assembled on-site.
