How to create a sloped "headroom" clearance in Revit

Hello all.

I have only been using Revit for two weeks and I am learning on the job. I am a seasoned Autocad user but struggling with how to produce a Headroom clearance over stairs See "attached". I am ok with levels and wall creation etc but wanted to know if I can produce this. In AutoCAD I would have no trouble but want to do it in Revit.

Thank you

 

David

You could do it as  a slanted wall.

Create a separate floor and add slope to it.

Why not use a Roof or a Ceiling or both for that? Essentially, that's what it is; right?    

 

...I'm a little confused by your screenshot though.  That Section View doesn't make sense. Love to see other Views.

In older versions you would model the sloped soffit using ceiling/floor/roof.  In newer versions you can model it as a slanted wall per @tmCL9N6 , which admittedly is an easier solution and better suited based on your screenshot.
