Revit Tapered Sloped Roof

To create a hip roof 4 side slope define slope for all boundaries.

Revit tapered sloped roof.

Several ways to do it just not with one roof. 3 modify properties to adjust. Then use join geometry to clean it up. Or use the roof with the sloped structure and a family for the tapered insulation.

If slope is activated a triangle symbol will appear next to each boundary. Both methods work fine. Want to create a sloped roof. Leave only the main roof sketch line slope defining and it will continue to slope down to the next sketch line.

The roofing contractors don t do it this way. In the option bar make sure defines slope is. Revit will issue a warning when a slope significantly deviates from the expected thickness. So basically edit sketch of the highlighted roof and trace the edge of the front roof then make sure none of the new lines are slope defining.

In the option bar make sure define slope is activated for boundary lines. Either use one roof for the sloped structure and another for the tapered insulation shape edited variable thickness with some careful join geo. 2 activate slope to create a sloped roof. Whether builders and contractors are looking for the perfect finishing touch or architects are looking for a decorative product to put in a spec.

I m used to showing tapered sections that slope 90 degrees to the main roof slope almost like a very flat hipped roof with ridges perpendicular to the roof and valleys making 45 angles if the tapered is the same slope as the main roof or around 22 5 if the tapered is half or twice the main roof slope. Want to create a flat roof. Fypon has the fit for you. Want to create a sloped roof.

A roof cannot attach to another roof and the roof cannot be a curtain roof. To create a gable roof 2 side slope remove slope for half the boundaries. Floors must be flat and on a horizontal plane. Fypon polyurethane products are easy to install low maintenance and designed to save money by reducing labor.
