Roof Block Revit Slope Steel Beam

Hi all i am currently working on a project involving beam systems on a sloped roof and some of the beam systems have gone in fine.

Roof block revit slope steel beam.

Open a section or elevation view showing the roof floor. Here we learn how to create an interesting 3d sloping beam system. However some of them mainly the hip beam systems go in but smash through the steel members instead of cutting back as shown in the screenshots here. Draw a reference plane parallel to the beam slab using the reference plane tool on the basics tab of the design bar and name it by editing the reference plane properties.

Revit structure placing beams on a sloped plane if you need to place your beams on a slope that will allow you to control the slope angle and have the corresponding structural elements follow you can associate them to a reference plane. I am self learning this old software. Select the element and choose modify sub elements. Draw the roof or floor element.

I think they were selecting each joist at a time and adjusting them individually. I have made the roof surface that fits the selected slope 1 5 in 12. To constrain a beam system follow these steps. To make the existing steel beam align with a sloped reference plane.

I am using revit building version 2005 not 2008. Download manufacturer approved bim content for roofs. You will first need to create the sloped named reference plane see video here. Open an elevation or section view of the beam.

Discover free revit bim objects for roofs. They wanted to know if there was a better way. Tile this view with the plan view at the level of the beam system. This is 2nd part of steel shed modeling in revit course proper way of modeling sloped beam with very important thing about analytical issue.

Use this to add slope to the roof floor. I have not been able to figure out how to show framing for a sloped roof. I have looked in the help file for anything related to making the steel frame slope from the higher elevation girder to the lower level girder.
