Curved wall for a large space

[Pedro Gregório Lopes]

Need help from any Fellow:

I know that CA is primarily for house projects. Therefore I drew with the Program CA97 a not so small school. Now I am trying with CA 6.0 draw a Church round in shape, say, outer diameter 38 meters. I am in trouble geting what I want with CA6.0.
How can I get it done? Or is it a CA limitation ? I can do it with squares Walls,yes, but is not the way I want it.

Thank you for your help.
Regards.
Pedro Gregório

If I understand right what I would do is this:

1. You can make a circular building w/ Chief6, you need to use at least 2 walls to do this as the wall will disappear if you try to close the circle with only one wall.

2. Draw horizontal and vertical CAD lines 40m long for a reference.

3. Draw a wall less than 180 degrees above the horizontal line and move it until the circle center is at your CAD line's intersection (it will turn color when it is aligned)

4. Do the same below the line

5. With the walls positioned double click one of them and set your radius in the DBX, then do the other.

6. Drag the walls to the horizontal line to to connect and that should get you what you want.
