I have a generic 5" thick rectangular concrete roof layout with a single directional slope of 1:3.
Is there a way to have the bottom and upper edge-faces be square (Two Cut - Square) to the slope and not vertical (Two Cut - Plumb) ?
No facia applied to this roofing system. Just plane jane.
creat roof with same line on top roof face & roof vertical side face?

Attached is a photo of the roof overhang I am trying to mimic and a crappy sketch showing the same thing. The roof has a normal gable on one end, but on the other. I need the over hand to go out three feet, then into a point at six feet at the same slope as the entire roof. NOT a hip roof which seems to be the only they I can make it. I even tried making a separate roof piece and it still didnt work.

This is done with lines currently. When I try to modify the sub elements to get the look I get a bunch of lines that aren't needed and can't seem to remove them. See

How to have success using the modify sub-elements tool for Roofs? The Wiki help shows rectangles and squares, not every roof has that shape.
I am cutting a dormer in a roof with a square rafter cut. I want the dormer to be plumb cut. Is there any way to do this? The property seems to be set for the entire roof.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI 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).

Since I am using slanted walls I need to work with a Mass but I can't get the mass look like my idea. The picture I attached is a simple screen capture of Rhino with the outline of the building.
Followed all the steps found online, but when I select "Join Roof", the cursor will not select any of the edge lines (tried on multiple roofs). Software Error? Revit 2014 Architecture.

I know how to rotate the image and bump for the material, but do I have to do that and create numerous roof materials in my drawing - one for each slope? Or is there a different way to map the material to the 3D object?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have started a project and have a somewhat unusual condition. I have a structure with a Conical Roof. We are putting a parapet around this roof. With the parapet, we are also going to create 4 individual structures that direct water/rain flow to scuppers that will be fabricated into the parapet. Below is a sketch of our condition. How to get the shape of a line that follows the face of a cone. Obviously, this line is not projected to the center of the cone, so it is not just a straight line. I am imagining either a radial cut piece, or a complex/multiple radial cut piece. I don't really know how to put it into words exactly.... Take a look at the sketch.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have installed recently the XDPx9 as an upgarde from V8. Now I am facing the folling issue:
Every time I will make blurred edges to a square, this square disappears completely. As long as it is not blurred there is no issue. Strange is, that this phenomena only happens to a square and not to any other shape. I tried several set-ups but all resulted in same issue. The pics attached. Means: Once a square has sharp edges, it is visible in the work-view as well as in the pre-view. Once it has blurred edges, it is still visible in the work-view but disappears in the pre-view. (Even in the browser view it has been disappeared)
When I try (by setting a line colour), transparency isn't taken into account.

I'm using Revit Arch LT 2013. I do not need to know what Revit can and cannot do.
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 included a picture of the roof I am working on. As you can see I have 2 different roofs set up here, which doesnt look very good. I was wondering if there is a way to create one roof with 2 different slopes like I have here? I would like it to start out at a 3/12 slope for the first 4 feet and then switch to a 6/12 for the rest of the roof. I have not been able to figure out how to get this to work.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create a simple shed roof attached to the sloping walls of a rectangular building. 4 walls, south wall 10' h, north wall 11" h, and the east/west walls joining them are therefore sloped.
I want to attach a simple shed roof to the top. Here's how I think I should do it:
1. create a new workplane aligned with the top of the walls.
2. switch to that workplane.
3. use "Roof" - Extrude" option to create the roof.
Assuming I'm correct in my steps above, I should be able to create the roof.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've attached a couple images of a visibility problem I'm having. The ROOF image shows the underlay view I'm using in the NO ROOF view in my revit project. I modeled all four of the dormer roofs the same, in place roof components, and they show up in the roof plan, but not when I use the roof plan as an underlay for my framing plan.
They don't show up when I toggle on the hidden elements tool either. I checked to make sure I didn't have coarse scale visibility turned off as well as if I had not visible in plan unchecked. These things seem fine, plus, as you can see, it shows up in it's own view. View range seems to be fine too. I can't figure out why these elements don't show up.
