I am looking to cut a tunnel through a mound I created in revit. The void should cut through where I have indicated in the image attached. I can't use dynamo so this won't be an option for me. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
use split Surface and delete/Hide the circle.

Thanks for the response. but this only applies to a horizontal plane, and I need to do it vertically.

Unfortunately, it isn't possible natively. Howevever, if you can use Modify Sub Element tools to shape edit a Variable Thickness Floor to "look" like a Topography and then cut the Floor.
FYI: a Revit Toposurface is just that -- a SURFACE. It has no depth; no mass. What you see in cross-section is a poche. The depth of the poche is set in the Site Settings dialog box.
Oh no I have spent all day placing these points manually with their heights as you can see in the image attached and now I would have to do the same for the floor... Is this the only option do you think?
I'm not sure it would be viable in your case, but another approach used, is to cut the Toposurface with a Building Pad and then place a "Earthen" Floor above the Building Pad.
Have a look at this screencast made by Balkan Architect...they propose a good workaround that can solve this problem quite well:

I've used that approach as well. The only issue is that it doesn't remove the poche in cross-section.

Surface has no thickness, it is not a mass and the poche base isn't either
Refer to the following post looks like your case: https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/revit-architecture-forum/earth-filling-the-plan/td-p/9260427

This is exactly what I am looking for but how does your topo surface have a mass?
