Has anyone tried to create a slab edge on a slab that slopes?

I am not having any luck getting it to work! Any work around you guys know of?

I am drawing slab turn down to a continuous footing with a 1' curb. Anyone have better ideas for drawing turn down?

Also I am using Revit Building 9.1, NOT Structure FYI.

Thanks

I figured it out.

In case anyone else has this problem.

You need to apply the slab edge before adding the Slope Arrow. After you add the edge then go back and add the Slope Arrow and it will slope the edge with the slab.

Nice way to go Dustin! I've been trying to figure this out too but never occurred to me.

Thanks!

By the way! Forgot to ask in the previous message. Do you know a way or workaround to build a curved sloped slab?

Try using the ramp tool instead of the floor tool. The ramp tool is the only tool I'm aware of that will create a true helical surface.
