Double Curved Roof

Hi All!

I have a query regarding the best way to model a curving roof, similar to below? The outline of the roof will be curved, and not perfectly circular, closer to a grape shape, But the arc in section will be dome like and on an angle.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! I have experimented with In Place roof Components using revolve's and then cutting a void out of that to create the desired shape but i am sure that isn't the most appropriate technique.

Create a mass, roof by face, change roof to sloped glazing, modify sloped
glazing type to have mullions in one direction only, set panel type to
empty system panel.

Thanks for the suggestion, I thought of doing something similar but wasn't too sure how to create the initial mass form (with the rounded edges) in a way that was easy and quick to modify. Have you come across any tutorials or videos online that might explain how?

Depends on the shape. If it a tope of a circular dome the create a profile, an axis, select them and create form. If it is a top of an elliptical/egg dome then create the entire ellipse or egg form and cut the bottom with a void.

A good place to start is by planning and dimensioning the construct in 2D views -- plan view and cross-sections.  Pretty much what we've always done before modeling.  Can't build a model without a plan.

Roof by Mass Face. Mass created by cutting the OOTB Mass Sphere Family with Void Forms.
