Revit Cut Roof Geometry

On a small scale side when cutting geometry the application expects faces and edges to be accurately aligned.

Revit cut roof geometry.

Another small scale requirement is that geometry cannot be less than approximately 1 32 0 79 mm. With the cut geometry tool you can pick and choose which geometry gets cut and which does not regardless of when you created the geometry. Click modify tab geometry panel cut drop down cut geometry. Click modify tab geometry panel cut drop down cut geometry.

When you create a void it affects only existing geometry. In the family category and parameters dialog select cut with voids when loaded and click ok. In the family category and parameters dialog select cut with voids when loaded and click ok. Select the object to be cut.

Please note that this cutting of the geometry was only possible because we checked the parameter cut with void when loaded. In this case you can use the cut geometry tool to cause the void to cut solids that are created after the void. Open the revit family with unattached voids and click create tab properties panel family category and parameters. Slight inaccuracies in the alignment may result in geometry that is invalid causing the cut command to fail.

It will join in the wrong order and you will need to use the drop down menu next to join to switch the join order.
