    Polecat,

    Negative on the negative level numbers.

    How else would you have a garage flooe 8" below the o level of the main floor.Same with porches and decks.

    I did a plane last year where I had a 4 unit townhouse project and each unit was 2; beloe the adjacent unit because ot the street grade.

    I will say it would have been a ****-of-lot easier to start with the lower unit and gone up up I did it the hard way.

    Also they were two story units ,talk about asking for trouble!Got em done though.Long story short you can use negative floor values.

    Have a great week,Ken

    Hope you get it worked out

    but we are talking about negative floor HEIGHTS which are very much allowed


    Glenn:

    I know that and stated that

    Poelcat did refer to negative floor levels...

    to clarify for 3 stories below grade and 2 stories above grade
    assuming 10' per story:

    floor 0 floor height would be -30'

    floor 1 floor height would be -20'

    floor 2 floor height would be -10'

    floor 3 floor height would be 0'

    floor 4 floor height would be 10'
