ICF Walls Drawn Properly
My most commonly used trick is to properly show an ICF wall without the interior walls framing through the foam and into the concrete. I have 2 pre defined wall types for the ICF wall; one with the inside layer of foam and drywall, and the other with the concrete, outside layer of foam, and any siding or exposed rock work. I draw them together using the double wall, and I connect them with an invisible wall to avoid having an island room. I center the footing on the main layer (concrete), and all interior walls join to the inside foam layer. One setback is the way the window sills only frame into the concrete, and not the inside foam layer.
