I have drawn a roof for my building. revit keeps splitting the roof into 3 different pieces, I don't know why, i don't know if its because of the shape of the roof, any solutions ?

Without any additional information, we can only guess...

But maybe this thread from another user will help you?

What do you mean it "splits"? Like into separate parts? Impossible. Sounds like another element is bisecting the roof. Isolate the roof in view to verify. See if it reacts to Unjoin or Uncut.

...Are there any Warnings associated with the roof.

...Can you post the file?

Ah, I see what you're talking about. You need to adjust the offset from roof at slope side. Probably easier to do as 4 separate roofs and align them in section and then join together.

...actually just remove all the define slopes except the major one.

Thank you! it worked, I removed all the slopes and left the slope which was at the longest part of the roof.
