Excluding Gables and Steps from a Curtain Wall Grid
If you are designing a curtain wall that has gables in the roof line or steps in
the floor line, there may be occasions when you do not want the grid to extend
into those areas. To define your curtain wall in this case, you can define a
single-cell horizontal grid that excludes those areas, and then use that grid as
a starting point for nested grids. For information about nested grids, see
Working with Nested Grids in Curtain Walls on page 1464.
NOTE For information about adding steps or gables to your curtain wall, see
Changing the Roof Line and the Floor Line of a Curtain Wall on page 1542.
