learning revit on the job - complicated roof
Hello All,
I have been teaching myself Revit Architecture for the last several months. I still feel overwhelmed with all of the nuances and commands but I feel like I am getting a handle on it somewhat. Trying to take it one level at a time. Anyway, I attached a rough sketch I produced on my tablet of a project I am working on that I need to create a roof for. I have a good bit of experience in creating roofs like this in 3ds max and sketchup so I keep thinking of ideas from that perspective. I could use a sweep tool and boolean the eyebrows or possible dormers into the sweep model and then use the sweep tool for miscellaneous details. Or, I could model one section of the entire roof and then rotate/copy instance. However, in Revit, I am not sure what the right approach would be. I think there are several possibilities but I am sure one would get the most desirable result as a part of the revit model and I thought I would ask for some expert opinions. I do have this posted in another forum I frequent so please excuse me if that is in bad taste. I am trying to reach out to the two resources I have found valuable in this pursuit.
