Massing - Wall by Face question

[sfraney]

Hi everyone,
I've attached an image showing a concept model im working on, using the mass tools, I've got my concept model to where i need to be but the issue im having is that i can not seem to tell this pesky wall to follow the curve roof line, instead, when i apply the wall to the face, it extends way past the roof line. I thought just editing the wall profile could fix the problem but this is not an available option from the toolbar. Any ideas? Thx.

Because the wall is curved in plan, you're stuck with a flat top. I think the most recent fix I heard about was to make a void to cut it off.

I assume you've tried attaching it to the roof element on the curved roof surface to no avail? You might try that first.

Unfortunately, I haven't had the opportunity to have this problem yet in Revit...

Thanks for the reply. Yeah, I tried connecting it to the roof earlier but to no avail. This is just a concept model so realistically the roof, and most likely the wall, will never be built this way. Thanks, I'll try voiding the wall if possible.

Using a void to edit the profile of the wall is the solution in this case. There is a knowledgebase article on this subject. TS78617
