Learn how to create dormers. Learn how to place gutters. Learn how to create a Roof Family. Learn how to place and modify Ceilings.

3. Introduction In Revit Architecture, roofs can be placed by three methods: Roof by Footprint, Roof by Extrusion, and Roof by Face. Roof by Footprint and Roof by Extrusion are explained in this chapter, along with instructions on modifying and creating roofs and placing ceilings. NOTE: Roof by Face is used to place a roof on any surface of a Mass model. Instructions on how to use this feature are covered in Chapter 15 on Massing & Site.

18. Multiple roof line changes TIP: A node is formed everywhere that one Split Line crosses another. You can move these nodes in Plan view with your keyboard arrow keys; change their height by clicking on them and entering a dimension. You can also go back into Edit ( Sketch Mode ), and change the exterior perimeter shape of the roof.

33. Introduction In Revit Architecture, Floor objects are horizontal slabs that are very similar to Roofs. These slabs can be used for any horizontal purpose such as countertops, ceilings, and so on. As with Walls and Roofs, Floors can be configured with components such as structure, floor finishes, carpet, and so on. You typically want to create a floor in a floor plan view. Floors are, by default, offset downward from the level on which they are placed. The Floor Properties dialog box.
