Check out thread http://discussion.autodesk.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5208833. Although creating a sea shell roof is possible in Revit it will require a great deal of work to create a sea shell roof shape which needs to be a solid form, possibly extruded or blended, then a series of Void forms to cut out the wavy shape in the solid form. Let us know how it turns out and maybe submit a sample RVT or the roof for us to examine.
