Complex roof: flat + pitched

Anonymous — Tue, 23 May 2023 12:21:56 GMT

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to design a complex roof (I attached an image for you to better understand).
I managed to create the pitched part, but I can't connect the flat roof to the pitched roof and I'm stuck.
Can anyone help please?
Thank you in advance.

Daniel

Hi Daniel.
For this situation you can use the Trim Elements to roof/shell command.
1- you have to overlap the two roofs a little as shown in the left side of pic.
2- select them both.
3- Right click Connect > Elements to roof/shell
4- In the Dialog mak sure you have the first option selected ( Use Roofs/Shells from current selection) and click Trim.
And they should be fine as right side in the pic.

As an extra, you can do this roof with the Shell tool also and it will behave as one element and you can have the composite just like the roof.
