Interior and exterior walls are drawn using the Architectural Wall tool.

Windows and doors can be added at given sizes to interior or exterior walls, automatically breaking the wall at the insertion point.

The Properties sheet, Selection Info palette or Style Manager is used to updated windows and doors inserted into the drawing.

A wall can be split at specific points using the Wall Split tool and the wall can be repaired after it has been split using the Wall Join tool.

A roof can be drawn by defining each vertex of the walls. Specific walls can be selected, using the Roof by Wall option.

When using the Roof tool, the finished roof will be drawn at the base of the walls. To prevent this, a Z coordinate is input to draw the roof at an elevation.
