Slab Edge Void

Slab edges should have the option to remove material for when the outer perimeter is notched rather than having to create a line based void to place around the slab or other similar workarounds.

This would be very useful.  Along with this, I would suggest allowing void in families (eg. curtain walls, doors and windows which are wall hosted, or non-hosted families like downpipes) to be able to cut a recess into the floor slab / slab edge, where desired -- currently we have to model a lot of in-place voids to cut penetrations for plumbing or rebates for sills and thresholds, which have to be manually adjusted or remodelled if an element moves.

@AGGilliam Please see this idea and confirm if it is the same issue: Shaft Opening can cut Slab edges - Autodesk Community

 

if the same please ask @kimberly_fuhrman-jones to combine

@wr.marshall While that is a good idea, I don't think it's quite the same. I don't need to create an opening through the slab, I'm looking to create a notch or step around the perimeter of the slab.

Be able to split slab edges and edit segments! Sometimes I have brick, then storefront, then brick, then storefront, on and on, and I only need brick ledges at the brick. When I go to add a slab edge, I have to consistently add a segment, select the drag points (out of multiple overlapping ones), and drag the edges over to cover the brick. If I could split and delete segments in one slab edge, like you do with walls, I could just split and delete where there isn't brick all at once.

If you draw the defining edge of the slab in several segments (instead of a continuous line) then you are able to apply different slab edge profiles to each separate line along the slab edge.
