Can anyone help me model this?

[Anonymous]

Hi there,

Im having a few problems modelling a particular part of an existing building, and i wanted to know if anyone could suggest a way of achieving this.

The structure is almost triangular in shape, yet the side walls slant outwards as the structure becomes higher at about 105 degrees. I have attached a screenshot of what i have been able to do thus far, with little success. I have attempted to use a typical slanted wall at the desired degrees to achieve the side walls, but the front semi-circular face of the structure remains straight unlike the slanted walls. Therefore i dont know of a way to link these walls at their varying slants.

Iv also attached a few photos of the structure, and if anyone can suggest a way of achieving this i would be greatly appreciative!

Thanks alot,

James

LOL! how easy is that compaired to the other methods!...

That easy one is not the answer.

The problem was that the model needs to transit between a tilted wall to a vertical wall as it rounds the corner.

wouldnt that be this point between the 2 nodes where the fillet begins?

[Dwight]

Do one yourself and see that the wall remains tilted as it rounds the fillet line.

looks fine to me...
