Revit Roof Slope Insulation

Modifying revit roof slopes to change the roof from a gable roof to hip roof go into the sketch options select all boundary lines and turn on the defines slope parameter note as a default your roof will have a slope of 30 degrees on all boundaries and form a hip roof unless you change the slope designation in the sketch mode per.

The second attachment shows how it s actually constructed with 1 2 tapered boards. One application for a shape edited slab could be a roof on a large building like this drug store for example.

The first attachment shows how i normally do it with slope defining lines near the roof drain with the tapered insulation roof element either extended to the main roof or just sketched out that way. First select the roof. Use shape editing to add internal drains to the roof built using sloped insulation. Check variable material in the roof structure to create sloped insulation.

8 set variable material for sloped insulation. The insulation thickness must be at least as thick as the vertical slope else you will receive a warning. I used 1 8 and 1 4 sloped pieces on a 1 4 sloped roof. By default the whole roof will be sloped.
