About Roofs

Buildings Space Planning includes commands for adding roofs to a building.

Buildings Space Planning provides commands to add any of these roofs to a building:

  • Flat roof - A horizontal or near horizontal covering for a building.
  • Freeform roof - An arbitrary shape used as a roof on top of a building mass.
  • Pitched roof - A roof with a sloping surface or surfaces.

Once a building has a pitched roof, you can:

  • Change the pitch of a selected face or all faces.
  • Change the overhang of a selected face or all faces.
  • Add an open gable for a selected face. Once you add a gable, you can change the wall thickness for the building side or remove the gable.
