We are working using in Revit Structure linking in a Revit Building File. We are attemping to lay in foundations using wall footing command. We have copy monitored the walls, and now have two questions... 1. Is there any option other than centering the footing on the wall assembly? 2. Lets say the wall assembly is brick veneer air cavity metal stud wall. The architect drew the wall with base at finished floor. You want to add a turned down slab that sits on a wall footing. You draw the turned down slab, you draw the wall footing, you modify the base of the wall to top of footing elevation. However, both the stud and the brick extend down to footing, when you only want the brick to extend. Are there any ways around this? I'm sure one is have the architect redo walls. Thoughts appreciated.

If I understand what you want to do, you want the slab to extend under the cavity wall, but not under the brick. The brick should extend down to the top of foundation. Correct? Could this be my project you are working on?  One way to approach this would be for the architect to go into the exterior wall type and in the section view, unlock the brick and air layer and possibly the insulation layer if that will also extent below the floor. You should model the slab and top of foundation properly and then the architect will need to go around the model and stretch the brick and air layers down to the top of foundation. Another option that may make sense if the brick ledge steps down would be for the architect to make a new wall type that is just brick and then he can make a new wall by footprint and pick the foundation walls. The new brick only wall type would have the bottom constraint be the top of foundation and extend up to level 1.

Your interpretation of our problem is correct. Unfortunately getting the architect to redraw is like pulling teeth. So far our solution is leave base of wall at finished floor. Draw thickened slab edge. Draw footing as a concrete beam which is on foundation level but attached to the wall. This works with the exception of the brick not extending down to footing.
