Hi.

I try to make a roof and I cant manage to make it like I want.

I include few photos like Revit make the roof and with red lines what I would like to make it.

The lines 1,2,3,4 I have put them only to help you understand better what I want to make. 

Can anybody help me or ask me if something is not very clear?

Thank you and have a happy new year.

Start with the shape as on pic 1. Set your constant slope as desired. Don’t worry about the variable slope, just make sure you get the flat ridge at the top, exactly as per pic 1. In the elevation view, use align tool to adjust the height as per pic 2.

Thak you very much. Hou did you managed to make it so quickly?  It took while for me change here and there the various angles. 

Have a happy new year.

I’m sorry, …I just realized I’ve posted wrong pic #1. The correct one, could’ve made things easier I suppose. I’m glad you made it work though.

Happy New Year to you too. Cheers.
