**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.
