By applying the defines slope property to lines of a roof boundary you can create different roof types including flat roofs gable roofs and hip roofs.
One slope roof revit.
Want a sloped structure or a sloped insulation in your flat roof.
Check variable material in the roof structure to create sloped insulation.
Fisrt use slope defining lines rather than the slope arrow in this case.
For instructions see creating a sloped surface using a slope arrow.
You will see a slope symbol appear next to the sketch line.
The insulation thickness must be at least as thick as the vertical slope else you will receive a warning.

By default the whole roof will be sloped.
See hd version of video tutorial here.
You can use slope arrows to create slopes on a roof.
Every time we think we got it right revit cannot make that roof.
Create a sloped roof in revit step 1 draw your roof step 2 define the slope.
The following example shows a roof that you can create in revit lt using a slope arrow.
Of slope arrows must not lie in interior of slope defining lines message was driving me nuts when making a simple sloped roof shed roof.
You also need to adjust the roof height to match the other roof.
In this sample i only use one.
Go back into your roof plan and draw another smaller roof this time the defines roof slope the little triangles is set on the left and right lines.
In sketch mode select a roof boundary line that defines slope indicated by.
This create an uni directional slope parallel to the arrow.
Use slope arrows to define slopes on a roof such as a 4 sided gable roof.
If we had to do this by making one roof then we had to do a complicated dance with base line offsets and very short slope arrows.
On the properties palette select or clear defines roof slope.
Then in your rectangular sketch for your roof set only one of the purple sketch lines to be slope defining.
The tail is the low point and the head is the high point.
Draw the arrow then click it and change the properties to select the right levels and offsets.
Creating a roof with different eave heights you can create a roof with slope defined lines at different.
Set the pitch i m setting this at 40 degrees again and i am offsetting the pink lines by 200mm at the bottom and the sides only.
Highlight one of the sketch lines and check the defines slope checkbox in the options bar.
I can only make this clearer if you sat right next to me had a look at our details and then discuss and try solutions to do this in revit.
