# Configuration Settings

**Framing Configuration** may be found in two locations:

![](/files/5ggxWpazgzy6fKcSLKyq)

or:

![](/files/mlOxHjDF4Hc799WeJ060)

### Configuration Settings

![](/files/bhUWbRlMlex9uhepQ3v2)

**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.

For **C+C system** − *M\_MF C+C Stud* and *M\_MF C+C Plate*

For **C+C Chamfered system** − *M\_MF C+C\_CH Stud* and *M\_MF C+C\_CH Plate*

For **C+U system** − *M\_MF Stud-Joist* and *M\_MF Track*

*M* goes for Metric system, *I* goes for Imperial.

Do not use any other families!

You can use other families only in special cases. [**Contact us**](https://helpdesk.agacad.com/support/tickets/new) for such cases.

**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.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.besmart.software/3d-modeling-and-design/metal-framing/feature-descriptions/floor-metal-framing/framing-configuration/common-settings/configuration-settings.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
