Creating Special Conditions and Customized Wall
Surfaces
Wall sweeps, wall (plan) modifiers, body modifiers, and interference conditions
are features that you can use to create special conditions, such as chases, and
to customize wall surfaces.
Wall Sweeps Created from Profiles
A wall sweep is a wall or a wall component whose shape is extruded
horizontally from a profile that was created from a closed polyline. The profile
sweeps along the length of the wall to define the shape of the wall or the
wall component.

Wall (Plan) Modifiers Created from Polylines
Wall modifiers use the 2-dimensional (2D) geometry of an open polyline to
customize the shape of a wall or a wall component. To use wall modifiers, you
draw a polyline in the shape you need and create a wall modifier style from
the polyline. You can then add wall modifiers of that style to any wall.

Body Modifiers Created from 3D Objects
Body modifiers use the 3-dimensional (3D) geometry of an object, such as a
mass element or a mass group, to add to, subtract from, or completely replace
one component in a wall. If the wall has only one component, the body
modifier applies to the entire wall. If the wall has multiple components, the
modifier applies only to the component that you specify.
