Hi,

I have a ramp that is an ADA accessible ramp complete with flat landings. I'd like to make a simple gable roof that follows this ramp and maintains a constant ridge height from the ramp in section. IE wherever I cut the ramp in section, the roof looks the same. I thought an in place sweep of type roof would be the way to go, but it seems you can't select the edges of ramps. Anybody ever try this? Is there a way to make a simple gable and rotate it in elevation or something? Seems such a simple idea and very basic type of construction, but very difficult to figure out how to model it in Revit. I'm using Revit 2013.

Thanks.

Could you stick on a sketch of what you mean? I'm thinking the problem is that you can't do section stuff in plan and vice versa.
