Revit Flat Bottom Roof

This video covers how to create a flat roof in revit that contains slopes for roof drainage.

Revit flat bottom roof.

By default each layer in this sandwich is of a uniform thickness. I need them to sit. The result is a roof with a flat bottom and sloped top. On the mode panel click finish to place the roof.

The revit interface is a bit unclear about constructing a flat roof but no roof is truly flat and creating a flat roof in revit allows the designer to annotate the roof without having to deal with the issues associated with the modeled hips and valleys of a low slope roof. On the options bar set overhang to 0 and clear defines slope. We cover creating the flat roof adding slopes to roof by using. Basically looking to have a slab with a flat bottom but a sloped top.

I was hoping someone had a trick to create a pad that would automatically adapt it s bottom to the roof slope while the top would always remain. The key is you must create a flat roof from the get go then use modify subelements to add points and or lines and change their elevation to add slopes. Consequently the whole assembly has a completely horizontal top and bottom surface. Want a sloped structure or a sloped insulation in your flat roof.

Hi could anyone please tell me how to make a floor like the one in the image. I know this can be done in full revit by setting one of the layers in the material structure to have a variable thickness and then modifying the shape using the modify sub elements in the shape editing panel. Check variable material in the roof structure to create sloped insulation. The insulation thickness must be at least as thick as the vertical slope else you will receive a warning.

Is there a way to create variable thickness floors or roofs in revit lt 2020. By default the whole roof will be sloped. How is the reverse achieved. Click architecture tab roof drop down roof by footprint.

Flat pad on sloped roof i m adding some hvac units on a sloped roof. Get this revit file here. Draw a flat roof. I know that using modify sub elements and unchecking variable for the lower layer i can get a floor with a sloped top and flat bottom.

As you probably well know revit has the ability to define a flat roof element comprised of different material layers. Lol even when you slope a roof in revit you can input the pitch in the properties.
