Revit Set Roof To Reference Plan

I ve attached an image as to how far i ve got.

Revit set roof to reference plan.

Create tab draw panel reference plane to draw a line. Now if the slope of the roof changes the reference plane will folow the slope and the beam system will follow the reference plane. Revit displays the modify linework contextual ribbon. Click architecture tabbuild panelroof drop down roof by footprint.

Take the above example. In the drawing area draw the reference planes by dragging the cursor. Cut plan keep above roof level. Add a roof using one of the following methods.

And remove underlay if there is any. There doesn t seem to be a way in the tag properties to reassign the elevation tag level reference. Sketch a roof by footprint display a floor plan view or a reflected ceiling plan view. Select the desired linetype from the line style type selector.

Here i am using 2 reference planes to control the start and end of the roof extrusion. Create tab datum panel reference plane conceptual design environment. 1 create another named ref plane in plan view so as to draw the roof profile roughly at end of roof image 1 2. Select the linework tool in the view panel on the home ribbon.

As you can see i have my roof outline over a wall outline but no cavity lines in the wall. If you choose not to move the roof to a different level revit notifies you later if the. If i change the cut in the view range to go lower it shows the cavity wall outline but cuts the roof. Of course when they latter opened the floor plan they couldn t find the elevation tag.

Structure tab work plane panel reference plane systems tab work plane panel reference plane family editor. I m trying to currently show the cavity wall outline only with my roof outline overlaid as such. If they hadn t spent so much time creating the elevations i would just have them. In this image we are looking down plan view on to the top of an extruded roof i ll show you how to create these later on in the course.

Click on each roof edge line to change the linetype. Go to end view of roof elevation face on to new named ref plane select roof by extrusion the. I have a situation where a new revit user unknowingly placed an elevation tag callout on the roof level verses the floor level. Capture other features modelled below.

This method is worth learning so when plane moves everything goes with it. This makes the roof line visible in the plan view but the lines appear as solid lines. On the draw panel click line. Do the roof first create a reference plane that is aligned and locked to the roof then set a view that is perpendicular to that reference plane and use that to sketch the beam system.

Once you get the roof plan view range adjusted hide wall and any other categories like furniture plumbing etc in. Bottom and view depth just below roof level or roof level itself.
