Revit Cannot Split Face Slope Floor

This video shows the process for the split face function for floors in revit architecture.

Revit cannot split face slope floor.

This could be say a walk in shower in the corner of a wet room. Sloped floor duration. You can use shape editing tools to manipulate the surface of a flat non sloped floor or roof by defining high and low points for drainage. Working with hardscapes or sloped floors it sometimes happens that a model pattern will deform or behave strange in revit.

Draw a slope arrow while sketching or editing the floor boundary. Shape edit examples use shape editing tools to slope a constant thickness floor or the top surface of a floor with a variable thickness layer. This is often the result of a curved face.

But now revit will only triangulate the area inside the split line boundary. You have a floor object containing a split face region which cannot be selected or edited in a floor plan view. If we switch to a 3d view we can clearly see the triangulated sloped section of our floor. The view properties view range view depth must include the floor object in order for the split face to be selectable in a floor plan view.

Key points you can use shape editing tools to manipulate the surfaces of your floor elements. Use one of the following methods. Add a floor material use split face add another material. By specifying the elevation of these points you split the surface into sub regions that can slope independently.

You can use the add split line tool to add linear edges and to split the existing face of a roof or structural floor into smaller sub regions. You can create sloped floors in the building model. Normal manipulation of model patterns move align and rotatable will only apply for straight planes so to fix this unwanted deformation we need to manipulate surface by height. Specify a value for the defines slope and slope properties for a single floor sketch line.

Select a vertex edge face or point anywhere on the structural floor to start the split line.
