Revit :: Roof Footprint Edit Error

Sep 11, 2012

Have created a roof with a gable on each end. Edit roof footprint to change the two gable end roof slopes to a hip roof. When I finish the edit, I get a "Can't keep wall & target joined" error message...which affect all sides of the roof. I have done this many times before without ever getting this error message.
 
The roof being edited is on the two-story portion. There is a gable roof on a lower level on one side.

Revit :: Roof By Footprint With Variable Plate Heights

Apr 12, 2013

Is there a better way of achieving this (screen snip attached). To get the roof segments off lower plate heights I have added in temporary walls corresponding the higher plate height, picked by footprint then extended the overhang on these segments to hit the lower plate height. Then erase the temporary walls. But this detaches the edit footprint-edit overhang function.

Is there a better way? If only a line element would host a roof to enable slope and overhang association.

Revit :: How To Constrain Curved Ribs On A Curved Roof Line

Jan 26, 2014

Having a time getting ribs to align 2m below top of ridge beam, and connect to curved wall below.  I created one, then arrayed, but the radius changes at each 2.5 degree interval.  I don't think I should have to calculate the % radius change to get the beams to do this.  Some constraint button maybe?
 
Not sure if editing a wall profile is the best way to model this, but it's working.

Revit :: Joining Walls To Roof

Apr 11, 2013

I am currently doing an MEP project and I am tidying up the model at present. I am having problems attaching the walls to the roofs. There could be a simple solution but I haven't found it yet !

I have tried attaching top base etc. but its not working. I only seem to be able to select one side of the roof when selecting where to attach the walls. I have attached 3d pics showing the walls that are extruding & also one of the walls that I am trying to attach.

I have drawn a rectangular double curved roof (hyperbolic paraboloid). Did that just by adjusting shape handles up and down in diagonally opposite corners.

AutoCad 3D :: Change Setting To Make Walls And Roof To Being Cut Using Sectionplane Command

Apr 5, 2012

I am using AutoCAD Architecture 2012.

I built some walls and a roof slab using the wall, door, and roof slab tools in the build section of the ribbon. I drew a section plane and activated live section. The walls and roof did not cut away and they do not show up when i use the sectionplanetoblock command.

Is there a setting I need to change to make the walls and roof susceptible to being cut using the sectionplane command?

Revit :: Modify The Profile Of Curved Walls

Sep 26, 2011

whether it's possible to modify the profile of curved walls. Normally when you select a wall, it should be possible to edit the wall and its profile, though when a wall is curved, the button "edit profile" is gray. Is there any other way to obtain a similar effect, maybe using masses or so?

Revit :: Trimming Wall To Roof / Making Horizontal Holes In Walls Created From Mass Face?

Dec 29, 2011

I would like to know whether it is possible (and how) to trim a wall that was generated from mass face to a roof (also generated from face mass) or/and make a horizontal hole in it. The wall itself is not straight or curved, it shifts outwards from the building from base to top (still in an elevation it looks like rectangle).

Revit :: Can't Make Roof Host Family Cut?

Feb 4, 2013

I've made a few roof hosted families, and they've all been fine in the past. For some reason, with this one, when you load it into a project it appears to be one 'ref level' too high for the roof host, hence revit errors, displaying that it can't cut the roof void.
 
I assume this is something really simple I should (or not!) have done with the family when I started it, can it be saved?

AutoCAD Architecture :: Auto-Project Walls To Roof Slab Not Working?

Jan 11, 2013

After having a problem projecting my walls to my roof slab (flat roof), which worked fine in previous sessions; and then trying the standard solutions of making sure my walls clean up properly, etc., I determined the problem was actually in that the walls do not like to project to a roof with components. In my last work session, I added a component to my roof. I switched back to a "standard" roof slab, projected the walls, and then switched back again to my roof with components.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Horizontal Section Of Curved Walls Are Faceted?

We have an interior space built out for a commercial project incorporating curved walls in 3D.  We need to generate a 2D drawing to be turned over to the on-site architect.  Generating a 2D section yeilds a faceted wall.  AECFACETDEV has no effect on the curve quality. Is there a control for Horizontal section?  Walls do not show up using flatshot so that is not an option.
