Hello and thanks for reading. 👤 

Im new to revit but,

 

Is there a practical way to use the tools provided by Revit to achieve the remaining suppression of walls so that it matches the faceted shapes of the structure? At the moment, I'm doing it manually with the wall lines, but this is very imprecise and time-consuming.

Due to the irregularity found within the structure, each room and module will require different wall configurations based on the faceted shape it needs. Therefore, a cutting tool between walls and facetted shapes that ends in the suppression of excess protruding wall would be ideal for a quicker, more efficient integration. However, the cutting and joining tool often presents errors or does not allow me to select as desired.

In the same manner you are creating walls by face using the volumetric family, create roofs by face for the sloped tops. Then attach the walls to the roof elements as in this help article:

Attach Walls to Other Elements

 

Hope this helps,
