To be able to have checks for changes on the horizontal compartmentation, it’s not possible to use model in-place families. Instead use copy/monitor on the floor instances that are placed. It's not possible to use monitor on model in-place. If there are no Floor types in the project, use Transfer Project Standards and select only floor types.

1. Go to a floor plan, under Architecture tab, choose Floors.
   
2. Draw using the floor draw tool, select which type for the graphic, and write the FireReq_FireRatingFloor value.
   
3. This enables quickly creating different requirements to the same slab from a link. 
   
4. Use Copy/Monitor feature, and just monitor instead of copying to the slabs.
   
5. Select the floor compartmentation first, then the linked slab.
   
6. This will notify the user when opening the model if somethings change with the slab.
7. Use connect family on the compartmentation to be able to send data to the slabs.
