**Use for all Vertical/Horizontal Framing Elements (except Openings)** – if ON, then the selected Joist and Rim Joist families will be used for other vertical/horizontal framing elements, like connections, bridgings, noggings, etc. without an option to change it to a custom family.

**Main Type of Joists** (or **Rim Joists**) – pick a family and type for the Joist or Rim Joist.

Sample joist and rim joist families that come with **Floor+**:

*Metric Joist – **M\_WF Joist.rfa***

*Metric Rim Joist – **M\_WF Rim-Bridging Joist.rfa***

*Imperial Joist – **I\_WF Joist.rfa***

*Imperial Rim Joist – **I\_WF Rim-Bridging Joist.rfa***

**Note:** *Do not use any other families! You can use other families only in special cases.* [***Contact us***](https://helpdesk.agacad.com/support/tickets/new)
{% endhint %}

**Width (b)** – shows the width b parameter value of the selected family type.

**Depth (h, d)** – shows the depth h or d parameter value of the selected family type.

**Define Depth (h, d) by Layer Thickness** – the software will create a new type for the selected family and change the depth value to the floor layer thickness so that the frames will fit the layer in the wall.

**Floor Frame Panels** – if ON, then floor frames are assembled in factory; if OFF – assembled on site.
