Joint roof

[Anonymous]

Goodmorning, 

I use joint roof command. There's possibility to delete this piece of roof in overabundance?

.rvt file attached.

Thank's

The small roof is currently 29.5 degrees while the other roof is 30 degrees they want match seamlessly... Fix the slope to 30 degrees on the small roof (then after u finish sketch use join tool)

alternatively do it all as 1 roof by foot print which is better in this case

@RDAOU doing it all as 1 roof it's ok, but I didn't achieve modifying the roof. 

I put 30° as slope, moved the line of perimeter on the roof ridge of other roof with allign command. 

After I used join geometry like in the video but not found your same result. Maybe using roof joint command?

.rvt file attached. Sorry, thank's

It is due to the inconsistent angles you set the slop to...see image below...

In your first file which you uploaded, the slopes of the bigger roof were all matching...in the second file you uploaded u have changed the angle on 2  sides and u added different plate offsets from base on each side

- select all the lines and set them all to the proper angle and remove the plate offset

- or delete and redo neatly 🙂

- When you pick the roof profile...do not mix between the pick line and pick walls (do it consistently)

this tells me your eaves aren't aligned. Aligning eaves precisely should resolve.

Not as a solution, but in theory you could also adjust the sketch not defining roof angles to remove a part of a roof. But following the replies above will resolve other issues...

@RDAOU  I put the same inclination, alling the two walls but one ridge on the roof is heighter then others. 

Riducing the slope obtain this. 

There is discrepancies yet.

I thought you have already solved the roof issue 🙂

Anyways that missalignment is because both roofs are being modeled separately using footprint...Roof 1 (red) is calculating the ridge based the given slope and the midline of the room underneath it … compared to Roof 2 (blue) if you do it separately using the footprint, the ridge will be offset to match the boundaries of the space below. 

Easiest and most practical is to:

- either do all as one roof and let Revit calculate

- model Roof 2 using "Roof by Extrusion" then you can easily align both

IF you don't want to use by extrusion...you can still use by foot print but define the slop using the Slope Arrow tool as shown in the picture below...u need to add a level datum (without views) at the ridge of roof 1 and another at the eave then set the heights at head and tail to those levels

Works but this would be like scratching your left ear with your right hand!!! You should use the easy and practical methods to model this

@RDAOU with extrusion seems like that although is not aligned, right?

[RDAOU]

I don't know I will look into the extrusion once im free...See below the missing screencast for reply 9/10 ...try this one out maybe it works better for your case

@RDAOU  perfect. 

Thank's very much!
