Curved roof beam

Recommended Posts

I'm new to Chief. I'm using X-8.

 

I'm on a project with a curved roof and exposed rafters. I tried to using the soffit tool and checking the box to place under ceiling and sloped soffit.

The room has no ceiling. I can not get the soffit that I want to convert into exposed rafters to arch with the roof.

 

Does anyone know how to do this?

 

Thanks,

 

Mike

Mike,

 

That does not work for for me either. Warning says "Could not find a roof surface or a ceiling surface over this Soffit."

There could be a way to do that but maybe you could show the actual rafters and put your insulation on top of the roof?

There was no plan posted but as you can see from my post I made a quick test plan of my own and wondered if you had noticed the same irregularity because if I recall the sequence correctly I had an open ceiling with the normal roof and when I curved it a new ceiling layer appeared.  I can post the test if you want to check it out.
