overlapping floor? Gray areas in floor?

Hello

I'm having problems with floors in Revit.

Every time I do a structural floor and then a architectural floor on top it looks like they are overlapping but they are not. 😞

Do you see the artifact if you hide the structural floor?

@Panta02

 

Which version of Revit are you using?

 

  • What happens when you add a building pad below the structural slab? If that resolves the grey hew then it wouldn't be the structural slab but rather the topo...
  • how thick is the architectural floor?

      1. You might want to try either Join the two floors

      2. or place the architectural on a different level 

 

you might also also want to try disabling graphics acceleration just to avoid any doubts

When I hide the Structural floor the architectural floor seems ok.

In the 3d View everything seems fine also, even without hidden the floor.

Is in the floor plans that I can see the problem 😕

I'm Using Revit Architecture 2017.

 

*It does have a building pad 😕

 

*The architectural floor is 0.03 m

*The Structural floor is 0.15 m

*And the building pad is 0.30 m

        

              *I already Join them (architectural + Structural floor) and the gray areas didn't go away. 😞

            

              *When I put the architectural floor higher than level 1 than everything is back to normal...

              but I can't have that floor in another level 😕

 

*disabling graphics acceleration didn't do anything 😞

Do you have any plan regions?  If so, are any of them with complex boundary?   Does the plan view has an edited view crop?  Do you turn on Analytical model?  Other than those, I have no more ideas.  Feel free to copy paste the two floors to a new file and upload.

Can u Offset the building pad -500cm or something like 2" below the current level which it is placed on (just for observation)

I tried everything you guys said, and nothing... 😞

The only solution was doing the model again in a new file...

Thanks for answering btw 🙂
