autocad extrude angle issue

Hi,

Im having real problems attempting to extrude an irregularly angled shape along a conventional axis to create solidity (for walls) Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I have enclosed a copy of the geometry in question.

Your drawing has four layers: 0, ground, floor and street. It appears that the only geometry depicted is ground (white) and street (green). I really can't tell what you want to extrude and what you are using for the path of the extrusion. Just looks like a whole lot of triangles to me. Maybe you could elaborate a bit more?

Hi Thanks for answering,

I have moved on (slightly!)

I am now extruding all seperate triangles along their own wall width path, unfortunatly there is still an issue with meeting corners.

I have included a revised dwg.

Thanks

I think I see what you are referring to. You want all the triangles to meet up and not leave any gaps right? I think part of the problem is when you extrude the triangles you get a uniform result. Why not make two triangles (interior and exterior faces of wall) and LOFT between them?

Sounds a good idea, Ill give it a go.

Sure thing. Post back with the results.

I played around with the concept a bit and one piece of additional advice I have to offer is that using 3Dpolylines for some of the triangles might be helpful.

johnnyk: Any luck in accomplishing your task? An update would be helpful.
