[Equest-users] EQUEST Partially Below Grade Wall

[Brian Fountain]

As you have guessed, you cannot do this in the wizard.  So, in the 
wizard, create the u/g wall.  Then in detailed mode, set the u/g wall 
height to 5'.  Then create new exterior walls (copying upper walls) and 
set their height to 4' with their Z value at 5' -- one for each side of 
the basement as appropriate, linked to the appropriate vertex.

It sounds complicated but is fairly straight forward when you get going. 

Bonne chance,
Brian
