Alaskan_Son Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 I would personally do that with primitives...probably a polyline solid or a solid with the structural components tucked neatly inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephanswim Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Have you tried doing the walls as a gambrel roof? I set the pitch of the lower roof at 89 degrees (CA doesn't allow a 90 degree pitch). You will probably have to experiment with it a little bit and fool around with baseline, ridge, and fascia heights, but you can still come close. Good Luck!

rlackore Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Maybe I misunderstand the intent, but I think it can be done with normal roof planes: roof.plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on X10, and I don't keep previous versions of the software installed on my machine. I suggest you fill out your signature with the version of Chief you are using - that way I would have known from the start that you were running X8. Anyway, maybe these roof settings will help: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
