I think you can only post 1 or 2 mb. Any way, I would approach this roof as a multiple roof. Make all the roof elements separately, then join and cut as needed to get what you need. Start with the big forms and anything with the same eave ht., then make the pieces with higher eaves and join them to the other roofs, then edit the orig. roofs to have openings in the shape of the new roof pieces.

Yes you need to make three roofs and then join them.
But be careful with that at the middle.
where the line of roof is lower, the borders should not be aligned. look at the esquisse I placed dimensions.

I realize that you can do it with only one.
