    Thanks David,
    really appreiate that! the walls are external masonry rendered block, kind of like feature walls. They are are not providing any support or enclosure just blade walls to obscure the existing fascade of the house somewhat perhaps I can create a room somehow outside to control their height. I'll give that a try.

    If you're trying to do wing walls like this that are not structural, then I just use slabs in general. This way you don't have to deal with certain problems that may come up when trying to do this with a wall type. Less headaches.

    A vector view look at wing walls using slabs. Same house, different look.
