Modify sublayers of floor in floor-wall encounter

Hi. I am new in Revit. I am trying to solve this encounter between a steel-frame floor and wall. I am following the detail attatched.

How can I modify the lenght of the different layers of the floor so that they arrive at the corresponding point in the wall? For example, the concrete layer arrives at the border beam, then the wood flooring to the lower wall wood beam, etc. Screenshot 2023-11-15 104604.pngScreenshot 2023-11-15 104609.png

Unfortunately you cannot modify sublayers of floors like walls.

The simplest method would be to have a Floor Construction Type for each of the layers which have differing boundary positions and place them on top of each other with offsets in the elevation

The only other alternative if to use 2D masking elements in Detail Views

You could create parts from the floor, turn on parts grips, and stretch each layer.

So my floor type would contain only one layer and then I would add the others with this tool? Is that what you are suggesting?

Sounds like you want to use Cut Profile to me. Maybe I'm misreading.

No that is not what I suggested. I suggested to use Create Parts tool so that you have each part for a layer and you can stretch them individually.

 

Select the floor and you can see Create Parts button on the ribbon.

Because you Modified Sub-Elements. Did you slope the floor or something? If not intentionally, Reset Shape.
