Curved corner roof?

Anonymous — Tue, 23 May 2023 12:18:51 GMT

Hello,

I have made this roof house in archicad. How can i place the gutter or something to retain water in archicad along the curved line? (left side of the picture)
How is this roof called, with one slope but rounded, i can't find it on internet.

Thanks

I would expect that there would be some kind of flashing/ edge upstand added to the roof material to divert rain water down to the gutter at the bottom edge. It may depend on local building practices as to how it is best done to suit the climate.

Did you figure out something for this yet?

What your after is probably a sloped and curved fascia/flashing of some kind?

If you are having trouble modelling it then image the problems the poor guy is going to have trying to build it.
The builder will have the same trouble following a sloping curve as you are.
Maybe more trouble - remember he is dealing with physical materials.

Yes Barry, but it can't be the first curved roof built in the world
