SLAB EDGES & THICKENED SLABS

How often does the Structural Engineer show a turned-down slab edge or an area of a thickened slab (for a wall or stair landing) and we just use 2D Detail Components to fake it in the sections? I hope not often.
This Revit Tip will demystify the slab edges and thickened slab conditions so you can feel comfortable making them in true 3D Revit Style!!!

You explained it plain and simple, this video gave me a relief when I got stuck on my project not knowing how to create thickening in the middle of slab. Thanks Mike

This video really helped me out a lot, I also learnt things that I have always wanted to know . Thumbs up man, keep doing what you do. Saw the length of the vide and I thought to myself I hope this guy doesn't waste my time and I'm more than happy that I watched the entire video cause I learnt more than I thought I would learn. Cheers man.

@meilin4272 5 месяцев назад

Hello, I found your tutorial is very helpful. However, not sure which step I missed out for the thickening that when I tested changing those parameters, the thickened slab did not change as wished. Could you please kindly advise that what issues were? Thank you very much.

@mbanugouba2152 Год назад

In fact I want your CD Mike, when is it coming out? Good tutorial , I've learnt a lot. Thanks.

@chriscastelein2260 2 года назад

nice video.. how do you get a mitered corner when your thickened slab turns corners?

@noelminimo6679 Год назад

Hi Mike, one silly question, how can I turn the thickening family to 'concrete' material. I can't make it join the with the slab as they are different material. Thanks

@jmland Год назад

Question: structural engineers usually specify the thickness of the thickened footing as the dimension from the top of the slab to the bottom of the footing (not from the bottom of the slab to the bottom of the footing as you do in your video). How can I set up a parameter with a mathematical equation, so that the thickness of the footing extrusion shape is calculated depending on inputs for the slab thickness and the total thickness from top of slab to bottom of footing?

@thierryuwitonze6615 3 года назад

Fantaaaaaaaaaaaaaaastic video! Thank you sir! can you do a video on how to set up a customized template for maybe a new office new to use revit.

@miketaylor8211 3 года назад

Creating a new office template is what every company needs to do when they start using Revit. That video would the a looooooong video. My suggestions: 1) Use Revit on your first project. Copy the project file. Open the copy and go to 3D and delete the model. Save this now as your Office Template. Any adjustments you made to items (model elements and annotation elements, and all settings) will now be in your template. This is a good way to start. -OR- 2) You could always hire me to make you a template. =) Working to help companies be productive in Revit is my job! :D (See links in any video description.)

@myscape8843 Год назад

Mike, How would you fix Stair?.... the Stair has 2 disconnected landing at the middle....... A U-Stiar where the landing was devided in to 2 to add riser.... Now its disconnected. how would you fix it?

@CarlosSaavedra76 2 месяца назад

This is something very interesting I've been dealing with, but at the same time I have an issue and I don't know why it happens sometimes on some projects and sometimes not, the issue is that when I need to show not the top of the thickened slab as hidden, the engineer wants to show the bottom part as hidden.... that makes me crazy, sometimes I can use the line work and sometimes not.... How can we deal with this?

@nucalabadze3850 2 года назад

@rodger8917 11 месяцев назад

I like the thickened slab family, but I can't get mine to turn cleanly at 90 degrees? The extrusion is not joined. How can I do that?

@farhank90 2 года назад

Hi, how to add the width and thickness parameters in the slab edge family in Revit 2023 ? Every time I need to create a new family as per the slab edge dimensions as there is no option to change the width and thickness.

@miketaylor8211 2 года назад

Great suggestion.. Let me see if I can get a Revit Tip up about that! It will most likely be a TYPE parameter, but that is OK with me.

@emilcapati6700 2 года назад

hi can you make a video on how to put slope on a slab when you get a chance? (Like slope for drainage in the middle of a room)

@miketaylor8211 2 года назад

Will do. Sloping a slab is done a couple of different ways. There is a slope arrow available while editing the outline sketch, and there are also tools for warping/sloping the slab after it’s in place.

@johnwallace5284 3 года назад

Do you know how to unjoin slab edges? Im stuck really bad thanks

@miketaylor8211 3 года назад

When the slab edges are created at the same time.. they union automatically. If they are made separately, you can select them and pull the endpoints (blue dot) together until they touch. You can also try using the ALIGN tool. One of those usually works for me. Also, you could try ‘join geometry’ if they are overlapping.

@user-bp2ip6jb8l 3 года назад

Thank you for sharing wonderful videos!! Can you make a fake window?? I want to decorate the exterior with windows but I don't need the sun from outside.

@miketaylor8211 3 года назад

Saki: Two ways to do what you suggest. 1. Use Filled regions and Detail lines on the Elevations. You can make a fake window and make it into a group and copy it. 2. You can use real 3D windows, but set the glass to not be transparent (opaque). That way the light won't get in. Those are my two suggestions. =)

@matrofix 3 года назад

can install rebars with this family????i tried but cannot from my end

@miketaylor8211 3 года назад

I think because the new family is a generic family it doesn’t accept rebar. I guess you could install rebar in the slab and then move it down into place.

@matrofix 3 года назад

@@miketaylor8211 thanks i got a solution 2 to 3 hours later after i comment. i have to tick a box where it says "host rebar" but thanks i got new lesson from your side

@farhank90 2 года назад

@@matrofix Hi, where can I find the Host Rebar option?

@lospeb100 Год назад

@@farhank90 it's on the property on the right of the screen in the video. There's a HOST REBAR click box which you need to check ✅️ . That will allow you to place rebar in the thickened slab

@dallaslindley3531 2 года назад

Another tip, work in wireframe and you won't buffer

@miketaylor8211 2 года назад

Thanks, but I need to show the items in Revit 'solid'. I found that if I reduce the screen resolution... most of the buffering stops. Thanks for the tip!
