how to draw vertical slab ?

[omaralkhatep]

how to draw a vertical or sloped slab?  I can't sketch the slab in elevation view, only in plan view so it is always horizontal.

I want to draw it as shown in the picture.

There are many ways of doing this but in general vertical slabs are walls.

If this is some kind of voided deep foundation then you can either create with slabs and walls or create a deep slab and void it with an in-place family as below.

Thank u very much.

how did u make that slope. I want to draw it as u did.

Could u please explain it in more details. or if there is a video doing things like that.

I'll explain in steps :

1) Create deep slab on plan to overall depth required

2) Create new section looking parallel to the wall direction required within the foundation

3) Create grid or named reference plane perpendicular to wall direction through slab

4) Switch to section view created in (2) and create new in-place family of floor category

5) Create void form and select the reference plane or grid created in (3) to be the work plane when prompted.

6) sketch lines as magenta example above and finish form (can use temporary dimensions etc. to measure out)

7) Switch to plan or 3D and drag extent of void form through slab as required (it will be set at the work plane; based on and offset from but can be dragged from there).

8} Use cut geometry picking slab then void form.

9) Finish in-place model

It Worked Thanks.

I hope everyone to be like u 🙂 .
