Excavate tool in RiR

Hello,

I’m currently working on a site model and would like to keep as much of the workflow as possible inside the Grasshopper pipeline. I know I can use Revit’s native excavation tool and then reimport the modified geometry, but I’d like to avoid that step if possible.

Thanks!

Hello @Parker_Gillespie,

Do you need native RIR Excavation Component ?

You might wanna look into the following method

Hi @MSAwan ,

That is was I was asking for. I don’t have any experience with RevitAPI or any coding. I can looking into what it would take to add this as a c# component myself if needed.

Thanks for your reply!

Hi @Parker_Gillespie,

Will python code work? I can quickly script the python code.

@MSAwan That did exactly what I hoped it would do. Thank you for your help and time!
