I got a file like the attachment, sat format, and already import it into Revit, so ,that is the problem, how can I make a surface from this file?

and more, that original object was set up in 3ds max

What type of surface are you trying to generate. If you try to apply anything to the face it won't work.

I want to make a new surface from this one, and the new surface can be divided as others, with the U V parameters.

I would recreate the surface in Revit. Its fairly simple by creating a series of spline then pull & push points

What program did the original surface come from? If you have access to the original surface and it is a NURBS surface (from Rhino or some such), then you can export it as an SAT and use it directly, subdivide it, etc, without recreating it in Revit.
