robdyck Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 I prefer to start with an elevation or section view and plan the curves out with cad lines and polylines. Then, I'll know the proper dimensions, elevations and radii before I draw the roof planes. Using construction lines will be helpful to also provide some guides in plan view. Draw 2 roof planes, one or the bottom curved portion and one for the upper curved portion. Set the top and bottom elevations of each roof plane and assign the proper curve. Connect them to each other and to other roof planes. Copy / reflect these to the opposite side of the center line. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
