Revit Understading Roof Base Offset

Learn how to troubleshoot your roof overhang or offset issues to make better more precise roofs in autodesk revit.

Revit understading roof base offset.

Hello everyone today i m going to show you a quick tip of modeling the roof. Once again select the wall first 1. When you need to have different eave height in the same roof you can select the edge of the roof and give an offset. When it comes to all things revit and has a unique ability to teach complex information in a way that brings quick understanding.

Adjusts the horizontal offset of the line from its associated wall. Plate offset from base. Having trained countless companies and individuals she is well equipped to help you master revit. For footprint roofs specifies a roof line to be a slope defining line.

To see the effects of this property more clearly set a value for plate offset from base other than 0. See about ceilings and floors in room volume computations for example suppose a room starts at level 1. If room bounding elements intersect the upper limit offset those elements form the upper boundary instead. Together the upper limit and limit offset parameters define the upper boundary of the room.

To fix your roof select the edge of the roof that is lower in the sketch of the roof. See roof boundary line properties. We can use the same attach top base tool to tidy up this junction. If you choose rafter the plate offset from base is measured from the inside of the wall.

It is a matter of geometry. In this example we used pick lines with a 2 0 offset. To indicate that it should extend upward 4000 mm above level 2 specify an upper. In contrast using any other draw tool will produce a different result.

Revit then makes the wall meet the underside of the roof correctly. If you choose truss the plate offset from base is measured from the outside of the wall. This height is relative to the base level of. The height above the base level at which the wall and the roof meet.

When you are sketching the roof revit assumes all lines of the sketch are at the same height. If the eves are at the same height the overhang is the same and the slope is the same the ridge line will appear in the middle of the roof. Defines roof slope.
