Introduction :- Model a roof above the ceiling by selecting the footprints of the ceiling. Using the adjustment toolbars appearing on-screen adjust the roof slope to 10 degrees
- REVIT offers several methods of crateing Ceiling roofs. Choosing the method that best meets the needs of your design.
- The extrusion of the roof can extend in either a positive or a negative direction along the plane perpendicular to face the solid component for eg.wall.
- Create roofs on any non-vertical faces of a mass using roof by face tool. You can crate roofs in a similar way that we created floors (refer to my previous blog on the Cadline Community).
- In the Type selector, select a roof type.
- Move the cursor to highlight a face.
Procedure :-
- The process is little same like as Celing procedure but here we have use the roof option.
- Open a new sheet and set units.
- In the tool bar taken a roof option.
- We have to select the foot print in roof option

- Pick the same as automatic or sketch.
- As per the same i can take a Sketch option for draw the roof
- After the rectangle option just draw in exterior wall
- In the properties browser given the slope value as 10 degrees
- Then click OK
- Finally check the roof in 3D view.
