Model it in sketchup/autocad/3ds and import it to revit. <--worst case scenario!

Use a floor <--- not as worst case, but difficult to maintain acurate thickness

Use a ramp <--- similar to floor

Use topo with subregions <--- no thickness so I'm guessing this one is out. :/

Use CDE or In-Plance Mass editor <--- more difficult that floor at first, but rewadring once you get the hang of it.

 

Here are some options, HTH.

You fell victim to one of the classic blunders. The most famous is never get involved in a land war in asia, but only slightly less well known is this! Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line!
