Mastering Revit Roof Systems: Simplifying Complex Designs

Jason Smith

Review various options of how Revit can generate simple and rather complex roof systems with less effort than traditional CAD format design. You'll see creation of Roof by Footprint for sloped roof design. Modify the sloped roof for compound roof slopes and gables. Generate flat roof design with adjustable contours or recessed with parpaet walls. Finally, applying fascia and gutter segments attached to Roof edges. Place Roof by Extrusion for arch and curve roof design.

Objectives:

  • Generate simple and complex roof systems with less effort than traditional CAD format design.
