You can use Revit building elements (typically floors and structural foundations) to excavate areas on a project site.
Workflow
- Select the Toposolid you want to excavate.
- Choose the Modify | Toposolid > Shape Editing > Excavate tool.
- Select the intersecting geometry (typically the floor element) that you’d like to use to create an excavation.
Demo
This video from the creators at BIMsmith demonstrates the workflow.
