Need help with modelling roof

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi,

I need help with modelling a flat roof that is pitched at two different angles!

I have tried making the flat roof slope at a 10 degree angle, and snap one side to the end of another flat roof, however, it does not want to snap.

It would be great if someone knows how to achieve this. Thanks in advance!

If you know the height of 3 points in your roof plane, then you can create it in the 3D window.
Here is an old post that may help.

Or for a more detailed example look at my replies in this post.

If you still have trouble, post an image of what you want to out the roof on (3D view).
