Revit does not want you to place a slab edge on part of a slab that is sloping (because it has been shape-edited).
However, you can ‘trick’ Revit into letting this happen by:
- Setting the edge you want the Slab Edge to go on to be ‘flat’ by temporarily point editing the slab.
- Then place the Slab Edge (Revit will allow you to, now that the edge is flat).
- Adjust the points back to how you want them.
The Slab Edge should happily follow the sloping edge now.
A bit of a workaround, but it does work…
No it doesn't because you can't then join the slab edge to the slab. Cmon Autodesk…get with the program…
Very frustrating!
After making my slab a slab with points (all 0 offset), adding the slab edge and then adjusting the slabs points I was able to get the slab edge to follow the slab profile. Unfortunately in some cases (the simpler case, in fact) the slab edge did some very strange overlapping/extending things beyond the extent of the slab.
I've tried a workaround with modelling a sweep with a profile of a slab edge, but that doesn't act properly either…
Come on Autodesk!
