How to make this particular roof

[Anonymous]

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to make a roof as in the attached example image ( a pitch roof around a patio). If you look at the plan, the building around the patio has an irregular shape. Now, I think that for a construction point of view there is no problem at all, just having the right pitch for each valley. But in Revit, I got it wrong (as you can see in the attached screenshot. I also don't won't to generate any slope at the eaves. 

Many thanks!

You could do it by modifying the sub elements of the roof rather than doing it with roof slope angels. If you don't define a slope on any section of the roof and draw it as a flat roof you can modify the points and just make all the corner heights to your desired ridge height. Hope this helps! 

Existing SituationModified sub elements making ridge height the same all the way round

If you want a roof with the eaves aligned to same level then ,maybe, my screencast can help your a little...

Split the modelling that roof in two..

1. use negative slope

2. two side slope..
