Hannahfdc Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 The roof ridge here is sloping and I'm not sure how to fix it to line up with the rest of the roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You essentially have 4 options: You leave the ridge sloped like you have it now. You make the ridge level and slope the eves by simply making the baselines parallel with the ridge. You square up the roof without changing the walls below... You model the roof in its current plan view shape with both the ridge and eves level. This however would require some very complex and time consuming modeling and would cost a lot more to build. In order to have both the eve and ridge level when the they are not parallel, you essentially end up with an infinitely variable roof pitch (which is why you aren't getting a simple answer). It would look somewhat like the roof planes posted in the following thread except that in your case the ridge and eve in plan view are non-parallel whereas in the referenced plans, the ridge and ever are non-parallel in elevation view: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gawdzira Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Dude, I was able to work Hyperbolic Paraboloid into her previous thread on this same question. Don't take that away from me. Do you have any idea how many years pass between being able to work that term into casual conversation? I will now return to trying to get dodecahedral slotted into a reply. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
