Hello all,
I have a slopped floor (I modified the sub elements) and I want to join the foundation (model-in place - blend) with it. When I do the join their quantities remain the same.
I notice that if the floor was flat the quantities are adapted.
Do you know what can I do in my situation?
Thank you in advance!
When you modify the slab's sub elements, area/volume calculations tend to function differently; however they do function when the foundation has NO height offset from level. (See screencast)
When you have offsets, it is preferable to use 2 floor element
1st as structural slab (flat + joined to foundation)
2nd as screed to falls (with modified sub elements)
you would be modeling it more or less the same way you would build it … and you will have the quantities as they should be.

I see what you mean, I was under the impression that you had a grade slab with modified sun element to create slopes to falls.
In the case you have (using a Sloped Slab) I would use 1 of the following:
Both ways, you will not really need to join
Alternatively
You can use a Foundation Slab instead of Isolated Footings and chamfer the edges with a void

It is a slab by modify sub elements
With the idea to make cut extrusion void (in order to cut the volume- left side) and extrusion void (in order to fill the gab - right side ), I have the result that I want..but as I will create an extrusion the edge of it will be 45degree only in the 2 sides (see image below)
No image Attached to your last reply...
however, in your first image in reply 3 … the bottom of the slab is sloped is: it looks more like a slab with an added Slope Arrow...can you post the .RVT?

Previous image - 2
In image - 3 you can check that the slab is modified by slab elements.
I tried the option with the floor hosted family - I create a blend model in place element in the family editor, but in the project the family doesnt follow the floor slope
Thank you !
Although both should work, use Face based since you need to align it to the face ...not floor based...your slab is sloped from the bottom too or am I seeing something wrong there? isn't that a section?
If you cannot upload the Revit file...Copy the slab + foundation and past in a new file which you can attach. Otherwise I really can't go on guessing

Why don't you just Join it in the correct Join Order so MTOs will be correct.
Make the foundation deeper so that it overlaps the slab, then join geometry.
Do the following:
This way your quantities will not be affected when joined since neither slab nor foundation are cut.
