Check variable material in the roof structure to create sloped insulation.
How to draw multi slope roofs revit.
Then draw the arrow to define the slope direction.
Under constraints for specify select slope.
To create a slope for an odd shaped roof like the one below use slope arrow.
When editing the roof sketch select the edge or edges you would like to slope and select defines slope on the options bar.
You will get a double slope roof that finishes at a point on top.
Create a sloped roof in revit step 1 draw your roof step 2 define the slope.
The best way to model a slope in your roof insulation layer only is to assign the insulation materials as variable in the construction assembly.
Select your roof edit type and select construction find the insulation assembly item.
On the properties palette select new sketch from the filter list.
Here is how to assign a variable material in revit.
Click modify create roof footprint tab draw panel slope arrow.
Using shape editing tools.
Then pick the point and give it its own offset.
Sketch slope arrows as shown.
Under dimensions for slope enter 9 or the metric equivalent.
You can use height or slope value specify the method and the constraint values from properties palette.
Click modify create roof footprint tab draw panel slope arrow.
Under dimensions for slope enter 9 or the metric equivalent.
8 set variable material for sloped insulation.
For creating complex roof it might be easier if you create separate roof then use join roof tool to join them later.
Select the lines you sketched and enter a height offset in the options bar.
Draw the arrow then click it and change the properties to select the right levels and offsets.
Sketch slope arrows as shown.
Drawing a complex roof in revit.
In the drawing area angle icons identify which lines of the sketch define slope.
By default the whole roof will be sloped.
To create a sloped roof in revit modify the footprint sketch of the roof by selecting and specifying the slope defining edges of the roof.
You can do this in 3d so it may be easier to see.
Inside of the roof plane where you wantt the roof to change slope.
Create a sloped roof in revit step 1 draw your roof step 2 define the slope.
The tail is the low point and the head is the high point.
Put a point at the center of the roof shape.
Under constraints for specify select slope.
On the properties palette select new sketch from the filter list.
The insulation thickness must be at least as thick as the vertical slope else you will receive a warning.
I think the simplest way to make your model is if you just draw your roof as a single footprint and turn off slope defining then you can edit the elements of your roof then.
