Adding an Interference Condition to a Door and Window Assembly
Use this procedure to add an interference condition to a door/window assembly. Interference conditions use the
geometry of 3D objects to create custom openings or cutouts in door/window assemblies. You can specify how the
interference condition is applied to the door/window assembly: added to the door/window assembly, subtracted from
the door/window assembly, or ignored.
1 Place the object in the location where you want to specify the interference condition.
2 Select the door/window assembly to which you want to add an interference condition, right-click, and
click Interference
3 Select the object intersecting the door/window assembly, and press
4 Specify to which door/window assembly component the interference should be added:
If you want to add the interference condition
to the infill
to the frame
to the mullion
5 Press
ENTER
Removing an Interference Condition from a Door and Window Assembly
Use this procedure to remove an object, such as a mass element, from a door/window assembly that the object was
added to as an interference condition.
1 Select the door/window assembly from which you want to remove an interference object, right-click, and
click Interference
2 Select the object intersecting the door/window assembly, and press
Mitering Door and Window Assemblies
Use this procedure to miter the corners where door/window assemblies meet. The corner where adjacent door/window
assemblies meet is not mitered by default. However, you can automatically determine the necessary angles.
The miter angle applies to all infills and horizontal edges (frame or mullion) that are adjacent to the corner. Vertical
edges are not affected.
TIP If you want to create a custom corner condition between two door/window assemblies, you can replace the edge of one
door/window assembly with an AEC profile and remove the edge of the other door/window assembly by using the frame
override Remove Edge option. For more information, see
on page 960 and
1 Select one of the door/window assemblies, right-click, and click Set Miter Angles.
2 Select the other door/window assembly.
If you change the angle of either door/window assembly, use Set Miter Angles again to recalculate the
angles.
