Hi all! The company I work for designs parking structures, and we just began implimenting Revit in our office for less than a year now. We are still testing and getting our standards straight, and the one thing that is driving me crazy are the elevated slabs. Is there a way to monolithically pour the slab and beams together so when we slope the slab for drainage, the beams slope with it?

One method:

If you're using the Revit structural beams, set up your beam system and slope them as required.

Then do the floor as an in-place family, using the top of the beam as your working plane.

If you then change the beam's slope, the floor will follow.
