Ramp filled with "solid" remains with gap underneath

I have a question about this solid ramp. My Terrain is at point 0,00, I have a ramp that in the 'UP" point I have +0,10cm  (a 10cm slab) and the "DOWN" POINT I HAVE +0,45cm. When I make my ramp solid,  and raise 10 cm to meet the top of my slab in the "UP" point, I remain with a gap in the terrain base of 10 cm (exactly the  thickness of my slab).

How can I to solve this issue? Thank you in advance.

Extend you slab under the ramp, or don't use ramp but create a floor with edited sub element to add the slope.

Are you wanting a variable thickness ramp? Shape-edit (via Modify Sub-Elements) a Floor with a "Variable" thickness layer.

Another method would be to create a Sloped Building Pad underneath the Ramp.

Thank you for this solution, but the problem is that the side of this remap is supposed to be concrete, so basically i need a rectangle ramp.

Hi! Thank you. This floor with eddited sub element gives me a slope but not a full solid ramp as a shape of a triangle... I need it to be solid because its side is concrete in the elevation. Another problem by putting a sloped platform underneath my ramp is that I cannot make the line of the junction invisible, and I cannot paint the material. Even if I select just that particular platform, selecting a painting tool to add a new material or if i change the whole platform material in the terrain, my section and elevation don't look propper.

A flat floor with edited sub element should have a flat bottom and a sloped top. You need to edit the floor type and tick variable for the concrete layer.

How's the ramp being constructed? 

 

Do one of these two depict the construction?

BTW: the "wedgy" one is a Floor with "Variable" checked under the Floor Type's Edit Assembly dialog box.  It's created flat (no slope) and Modify Sub-Element is used to change the elevation of the end points. 

 

 

NOTE: If you are using Revit LT, you won't be able to shape-edit the floor.   Workaround would be to create the Ramp with a thick Wall Type (as thick as the Ramp is wide) and then use Attach Top/Base tool to attach the top of the Wall to a sloped Ref. Plane.

The right one would be more wha I need. Did you make it all with floor? or in the side there are walls? Could you explain the left option in more details, please?
Thank you
