Hello
I would like to make this kind of extrusion (attached file), I can't make the volume I was looking for
Thank you for your help

What approach did you try?
If the pattern is evenly distributed:
- Extrude a hexagon without merging it to the rest of the room;
- make a 3D sketch to define the vertices of the facets;
- Create plans that pass through these points.
- remove extruded material from these plans;
- repeat the body obtained;
- merge the bodies of the repetition with the rest.
If there are a lot of them, which I assume, it might be interesting if this sequence is located at the very top of the building tree, which will allow it to automatically merge with the sequel.

Hello
You can also do: an extrusion of a hexagon, chamfer 2 edges, a removal of material for the rest and then a linear repetition of the volume body.

Kind regards

Hello
I'm getting to this result, is that what you're looking for?
Kind regards

EDIT: for the tutorial;
-Make a hexagonal extrusion.
-create a plane1 with an edge and an opposite vertex.
-Use plane1 to sketch a line through the center of the top face and a point on the edge used for plane1.
- Create a "throughout" material removal by checking the removed side (checkbox).
-Create an axis in the center of the hexagonal extrusion and perpendicular to the top side.
-Use the axis to make a circular repetition of the material removal.
-Finished.

Hello, which version are you on?
I offer you another way to model the hexagons without using a plane.
1 - I start not with a hexagon but with a diamond that I bevel with the help of a removal of material using a line.
2 - Circular repetition x3 on 360° then combined of the 3 volumes.
3 - Body repetition in an area bounded by a surface or a sketch of your choice. nested mode + 30° angle, for distances it depends on your diamond/hexagon dimensions. (EDIT: 30 or 60° depending on the original orientation of your hexagon)
4 - Having no other volume, I created my surface which merges everything into a single volume. (which is not valid if you start from an existing volume and in this case do a combine volumes instead)
Kind regards
