[Equest-users] Modeling different floor area

[Bishop, Bill]

Jack,
Leave out the below grade floor for the building shell on wizard screen
1. Then create a new shell "immediately below" the other shell (as
selected on screen 1). Alternatively, you can "Specify Exact
Coordinates" such as (0,0,-12). This shell will have 0 above grade and 1
below grade floor. Change the footprint on screen 2.
Regards,
Bill

Hi, 
I have a 3 story building, 2 of which are above grade and have the same
footprint, 1 is below grade and a different footprint. 

I have modeled it in Equest using the wizard and all 3 floors are
currently the same footprint size. Is there a way I can 'shrink' the 
basement floor to make it a smaller footprint then the floors above it? 

Thanks
