ChiefJeet Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 The default angle of the roof beam is vertical but I would like to place it perpendicular to the rafter. Can someone please advise me how it can be done? The upper beam is drawn in cad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeaTime Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 As far as I'm aware, only Blocking and Purlins will auto rotate to align to the roof plane. But if change your Roof Plane's Ceiling layers to a single Roof Purling layer, defining the desired beam size you can then draw in a Purlin and have it build underneath your rafters -- however if you're doing this in a vaulted room area, this will remove the ceiling finish since the "Use Room Ceiling Finish" option gets turned off when the ceiling layers are manually changed. But after the Purlin is drawn you can open the roof plane and re-check Use Room Ceiling Finish - the purlin will remain and ceiling finish will be generated.
