While I am not actually making a garage floor, the part looks exactly like that. It’s a flat surface with a raised surface around three of the sides. I drew it in the top view, and I drew the size of the curb now when I am extruding it to make it, a flat surface of a given thickness, and then a raised curb around the edges when I rotate it, the curb appears to be hollow. So basically, I had drawn a rectangular floor and then in from the outside edge, I offset the thickness of my walls and drew a line there. Then I extruded both areas down for the thickness of the floor and then just the outside curb up for the thickness of that curb, and apparently that’s not what I should have done any answers?
Hmmm, can you share the file you made this far ? And a photo pf what you want to achieve ?
I don’t know if I fully understand what you are trying to achieve, but to me it sounds as if you are looking for the FollowMe tool
As you can see that from the top of the curb looks solid but in the rotated view it’s hollow. The dove tail shapes are because I am going to make a left and a right when I 3-D print them because the entire model won’t fit on my 3-D printer.

So you created the curb with the push-pull tool. The correct workflow for that would be
- draw the bottom outline and face
- push-pull to bottom thickness
- draw or offset the curb outline on the top face
- push-pull the curb to its final height.
