Hello everyone,
I have recently downloaded the Revit Model Checker and Configurator, and am trying to build a check that will fail if there are overlapping floors in the model. So far I had no luck in building this check. Can anyone help me out please?
Thanks
The Model Checker does not excel at geometry checking, especially when comparing the geometry of 2 different elements. It is excellent at checking data in parameters. There is a way to build a check for redundant elements, but that is basically to look for elements that were copied and pasted on top of each other - the exact same element. Model Checker is not going to be able to check for overlapping floors... or at least I can't think of a way to accomplish that.
There is a pre-set check set for this.
Go to 'Setup' under model checker - Open - and at the bottom you will see 'Public Library'
This will run an in depth report including duplicate/clashing elements.
Hello, thank you for your reply! Unfortunately, it seems the check does not find overlapping or duplicate floors specifically.
I will look for other ways to create this check, maybe with the help of a dynamo code.
Thank you
Hello! thank you for your reply.
I will use the duplicate elements check for the other elements I have in the model, and maybe write a dynamo code for floors specifically.
Thank you
Hello,
what is the clash detection? Is it in the Model Checker tool or something else?
Thank you
Separate from creating a tool to check... Revit generates its own warnings for overlapping floors and you can check them out them via Review Warnings.

Clash detection in the native Revit program, found under the Collaborate tab. You can compare Floors against Floors.
Dynamo will also work, you can retrieve the geometry of the floor elements and do an intersection check. You'll get the same set outputs as the Interference Check, just in a different list format.
