Roof Slope Arrow Revit

To create a slope for an odd shaped roof like the one below use slope arrow.

Roof slope arrow revit.

Draw the arrow then click it and change the properties to select the right levels and offsets. Using shape editing tools. Click modify create edit boundary draw tab slope arrow. Click once to specify its start point tail.

This is the easiest way to do it. The slope arrow must start on an existing sketch line. Forming a roof dormer using slope arrows posted on 13 03 2015 it is a relatively straightforward procedure to put a basic pitched roof onto your model in revit architecture. You can use slope arrows to create slopes on a roof.

Draw the slope arrow in the drawing area. The roof by footprint tool can be used to detect a chain of external walls and create a pitched roof based on their boundary. For creating complex roof it might be easier if you create separate roof then use join roof tool to join them later. The tail is the low point and the head is the high point.

Click again to specify its endpoint head. But what if we want to create a roof based on absolute heights. For more examples and tips see about slope arrows. Roof slope arrow is a tool that allows you to modify slopes on roof elements by defining start elevation and slope or end elevation.

Multiple roof slope arrows can be added to a roof and connected to each other. Then draw the arrow to define the slope direction. This create an uni directional slope parallel to the arrow. The following example shows a roof that you can create in revit lt using a slope arrow.

The default method of creating a sloped roof within revit architecture is to make one or more of the roof boundary lines slope defining. Note that only flat roofs are supported by this tool. Use slope arrows to define slopes on a roof such as a 4 sided gable roof. Make sure define slope is inactive and that the arrow lies on the boundaries.
