Crete a face as offset of another one using revit API

[Anonymous]

Hello friends!

Needs your help. Is there a way to crete a face as offset of another one using revit API? 

just for show what i need: as it usually happens while creating a roof by face.

The CurveLoop class has a CreateViaOffset method:

However, it does look as if the face class provides any creation methods at all.

Maybe a Face can only be obtained as a read-only view of a solid or something?

Cheers,

Jeremy

Thanks Jeremy! Seems the BRepBuilder class the best way to do what I want. I loked up through your exsamples about solid creation with that class. But i haven't found a way to make a hole in face when the face is creating. Maybe there no any sence to have an opprtynity making that and boolian operation cover all situations... My final goal is to create the solid by picked faces in the same way the roof by face create
