Nik, 1- Use the split surface tool and draw your road with the line tool, then highlight all the point and lower/raise them the amount you need for your road off set. Do this: In Site Plan click the Split Surface tool, then click on the topo surface. Them use the Line tool and draw your roads. Click Finish Sketch, then click on the road you just created and click edit, them highlight all the elevations points and change the elevation to the number you need. Click finish surface when finished. Keep in mind that this can only be done on a level surface. If your topo is sloped you will have to change eack of your elevation point one at a time. 2-Import the flat dwaring into revit and use it as an underlay, then place your building directly in the location on the flat drawing. I do this all the time and It works very well. Cheers, Alan

select the road in elevation and move down... can't get much quicker than that.

Hello first post here and digging up this thread after a search.

 I tried all the methods but the problem is there is a vertical gap between the road surface and the pavement surface. I have a 100mm high pavement so it is quite apparent there is a void there. ANy suggestions? Can we use PADs for creating sloped roads?

Thanks!
