Wall elements must have a property (DATA) with a DKEY attribute of HEIG. This property should also be a design parameter. This enables Concrete building Design to adjust the height of walls.
If a wall element has a property with a DKEY attribute of HAUT, this is used to taper the wall height.
The thickness of a variable thickness wall should be given by the first design parameter, which makes it much easier to determine the wall thickness from embedded parts and holes.
For example the parameters for a simple rectangular wall are shown in the following table:
