Im new to Revit, but I'm pretty sure it's possible.

You can model 2 separate roofs, then join them. Or you can do it in one roof with 2 different sketches. There's a roof tutorial somewhere showing it. I'll try to find it for ya.

In help, check out roofs, and look at "add a roof to another roof". I think that's how you do a double pitch roof.

Yes. As dzatto said... Use two roofs.
