Hi,
I can’t seem to access Floor Voids from Element Geometry?
No Geometry is coming through. It is a Void that is cutting a Floor to create a floor edge recess.
Anyone know how I can assess the geometry to a Floor Void (Model In place Item)
Thanks

You could use Opening Boundary Profile (OpeningBoundProf) to see the profile curve of the void. Not sure if that is helpful.
Unfortunately Revit API do not give access to in place void geometry, but maybe this workaround is enough for you. Keep in mind that this result is not exactly the in place element geometry, but the intersection of the Floor and the Void.
In which context do you need the in place element geometry?
How are you going to use it after?
Hi @kike
That would be great if it worked for me.
The idea of this workflow it to grab all edge floor recesses from a linked Arch File & build new Void families in a Structural Model. Then to cut the structural consultant’s floors.
This workflow is to automate changes of recesses from an Arch consultant to a structural consultant. Less coordination & manual updating when found changes to the facade recess requirements.
Hi Christopher,
This is going to be a nice workflow between Arch and Struct model, say you have a concrete walls that both disciplines as sharing and Arch are in controlling of the void locations for their doors and windows. Using the link void element locations from the Arch model, you can assign and place the Struct void element to cut the concrete walls, which a tedious task from the pass.
PS. dynamo can do this one as well but I like the RIR element tracker more ![]()
Kind regards.
Got it working with a large work around.
Great workflow to automate recesses for an Arch Model to a Structural Model.
I think you got confused.
I’m using the first output of ‘Hosted Elements’. In your screenshoot you are using ‘Element Host’ instead.
Does it work on your case using ‘Hosted Elements’?
To avoid this confusion I will change one of the components name to something more different.
