Greetings, 

I have built a smallish model which has a ground floor and a first floor above. The first floor 'ground' has been drawn as a concrete slab 300mm thick. Technically this same piece of concrete forms the structural ceiling/soffit of the ground floor also; but Revit (Arch 2013) does not appear to treat it this way. Is there a way that I can assign the underside of the first floor slab as the ground floor 'ceiling'? Or do I have to draw a separate ceiling for the ground floor?

Many thanks,

CM.

You can use the "generic" ceiling which has no properties but will host objects.
