Best practices for making floors in Revit

Floor structure should be layered out in the way the parts of the framing will be modeled, e.g.:

1. Flooring

2. Sheathing

3. Main frame

4. Battens

5. Sheathing

Note: Materials for every layer are mandatory.

Frame direction deepens in Span Direction in the Floor Boundary:
