Mystery roof type

Hey everyone- I'm trying to build a roof like this, but don't know what its name is, so I can't look up how to do it. tried to use google image search and it told me it was a shed roof (duh), a monitor roof, and a clerestory roof, none of which really fit. Does anyone know the correct name for this style or how to build it without resorting to manual planes or cheats?

Thanks, much appreciated.

My thought (which may be dumb) was to keep the wall heights on the back the same and only alter the pitches of the planes. I don't know how to change the pitches while using automatic rebuild- I've tried breaking the wall and defining different pitches by wall, but they change the whole roof, not just that portion.

With the picture you showed, it looks like the 2 sides are the same height, while the middle is taller. So set the 2 side rooms to whatever rough ceiling is needed, and the middle room taller. You can keep the pitch the same for all of the roofs.
