Hello!

As you see in the attachment (example 1), i want to hide these "joists" from the 'concrete slab'

like in the example2. 

The bottom line is: i dont know what i did to get such effect as in theexample 2.  

About the slab: Is a concrete slab (9cm) + wood floor (1cm) = 10cm thickness

About the beam system: Beam system with retangular concrete (15x50)

The main idea is to simulate a waffle slab.

Revit version: 2014 (service pack 2)

 

thanks.

Let me see if i understand, you have a 1 cm wood floor over the slab. Are your structural elements in the right level? Should that construction be under the floor - and not required to be hidden? I am confused with what you are representing because you seem to have two objects with the same top level (in brown and grey colours).

 

Anyway, you can always select in any view the objects you want to hide, and when selected right click on your perspective and select "hide in view" the selected objects.

thanks.. i'll use that!!!

 

adding more info:

1) Yes

2) Yes, they are.

3) Well.. this is just a trick to 'mimick' a waffle slab.

4) yeah. but is there a way to 'melt' the two? i did that by doing the following:

a) goto floor propriertes

b) check in structural options - structural and enable analytical model

c) by this way, you'll see the same result as image 'example 1'

d) the problem is - this worked once only.  i tried with a blank project and worked..

maybe something is wrong with my project.

also you can hide some framing by changing zoffset value (-1).
