Dear Reader,
how to create a combination of a steel-profile and concrete as an parametric floor or roof slab.
without getting a very high and geometrically heavy model!
whished parameters:
- several steel-profile height [cannalures]
- concrete height
- visibility settings for the longitudional and transversal sections
can a concrete floorslab be combined with an [2d] overlay as an filled region or maybe as an line type [like the BAT linetype in autocad].
how to, some suggestions?

I too use this composite deck...(sometimes called Q-deck in the field). Very common. If anyone has suggestions on how to model this and/or create a family with the parameters mentioned by ELVIS, I would sincerely appreciate it too!

You can use Revit Structure to create this type of floor. RS also gives you the ability to set the direction of the decking so your sections are correct.You may want to download and install Revit Structure, activate the 30 day trial and create a few composite floor systems. Then copy those floors over to your Revit Building file and see how they react there. Maybe you can get away with creating a bunch of them in RS during your 30 day trial and then copy them for future use to you RB template.

Why do you want to model this deck? I just use a repeating detail for my roof and floor decking in any relevant sections and details.

I think I created once what you want. I first create a beam system from the structural tap of the designbar. 2. I gave this beamsystem a base or top offset (i don't recal) You need this to keep the beams under the floor. 3 I added the floor seperately on top of the beams. so it's basically a combination. I haven't been able to link the floor thickness to the offset of the beamsystem. that would be nice but so far this works as well.

Hi all, cannot believe that this type of floor is not created in a family, someone tried this in Revit structure? cauze i am not willing to use repeating details and like it to be fully parametric! Just wandering! C
