Sloped curved roof in Revit 2016

Hello, I am trying to create a curved roof that slopes in 2 directions.  The structural engineers have already designed the framing for this roof so I should be able to get the slope from that.  I'm fairly new to this, can someone help as to how I can create the curved roof, then align it to the slope of the beams in the linked Structural model(or vice versa)?  Thanks in advance!

1. If you are not sure if the roof is flat or warped, you could create an in-place mass using the edges of the structure as reference. Then, create a roof by face from the mass.

2. If you are sure the roof is flat, you could create a regular roof by sketching the boundary, then draw the slope arrow at each edge to match the slope from structure.


By the way, if a roof is flat, which I think yours is, then it technically slopes in one direction. You see different slopes on different edges because they are not parallel to each other.
