Use the following procedure to create a schedule for analyzing the perimeter of masses in a conceptual design.
Revit see perimeter wall through roof.
The design contains many angles and it may be too expensive to build.
Use pick walls if you want the roof to automatically adjust when walls are moved.
Then change your visual style to wireframe.
Open loop sketch of the roof profile.
Select each boundary line and set the value in properties or in option bar.
Created when you use lines and arcs to sketch the profile in an elevation view.
In the image below you can see the lines that i ve changed on the left.
In this example side faces of walls and joined faces of the roof were selected.
You can set an overhang on roofs created with pick walls.
You have designed masses to explore a conceptual design for a building.
I just need to go around the rest of the perimeter and apply the overhead line style.
The revit tool you would use to show the fittings behind the wall is on the view tab graphics panel and the tools are show hidden lines and then the opposite remove hidden lines.
You can see in the image below that revit has now extended the selected wall vertically so that it fills in the triangular void.
5 activate overhang on picked walls roofs.
With this line style selected all i need to do is click on each line that i want to apply this style to which is all the lines that make up the perimeter of the roof boundary.
Depth is calculated by revit lt based on size of sketch unless you specify start and end points.
You want to produce rough cost estimates based on its linear dimensions to check construction costs for the project.
Valid boundaries are highlighted.
Valid boundaries are a joined roof or its bottom face a side face of a wall a bottom face of a floor an edge of the roof to be cut or a model line on the face of the roof to be cut.
In the image below you can see i have created a section line through the building.
Next let s take a section through our building so that we can see how the external walls meet the underside of the roof.
In this video i show you how to attach the walls in revit to the roof above them.
