Floor - Elevation at bottom/top <varies> - BuiltInParameters

[se.ha]

Hi,

I can`t seem to find the BuiltInParameters for floors elevation at bottom/top parameters. Is it the STRUCTURAL_ELEVATION_AT_BOTTOM and TOP?

I have a code that is supossed to do something, if the value <varies>. Whats the actual output in this case? It is probably not a string "<varies>", right?

Thank you

Parameter has a StorageType,  for STRUCTURAL_ELEVATION_AT_BOTTOM it is Double.

Thank you. Since its Double, what would be the output in case the value <varies>?

Here are all the builtinparameters for the selected element. none of the elevation information changes when creating a slope or even moving the element up and down for that matter. All I want to know is the value "Elevation on Bottom" thats visible in the regular properties window.

As far as I know, when the floor has a slope, its elevation information is always 0, which can only be calculated by obtaining the top and bottom surfaces.
Try to use HostObjectUtils.GetBottomFaces And GetTopFaces , maybe can help.

Thanks for your answers.
I found a different approach, that works for me now:
Since Im already creating a ray to find the intersection with the floor, Im creating a second one with slight offset in x and y direction. If the two intersections have different z-values, the floor is sloped.
