Want a sloped structure or a sloped insulation in your flat roof.
One slope roof revit.
Highlight one of the sketch lines and check the defines slope checkbox in the options bar.
On the properties palette select or clear defines roof slope.
In sketch mode select a roof boundary line that defines slope indicated by.
Fisrt use slope defining lines rather than the slope arrow in this case.
To specify roof pitch select a slope defining boundary line click the numeric slope definition.
Use slope arrows to define slopes on a roof such as a 4 sided gable roof.
The tail is the low point and the head is the high point.
Of slope arrows must not lie in interior of slope defining lines message was driving me nuts when making a simple sloped roof shed roof.
8 set variable material for sloped insulation.

See hd version of video tutorial here.
Creating a roof with different eave heights you can create a roof with slope defined lines at different.
To create a slope for an odd shaped roof like the one below use slope arrow.
Create a sloped roof in revit step 1 draw your roof step 2 define the slope.
If we had to do this by making one roof then we had to do a complicated dance with base line offsets and very short slope arrows.
You will see a slope symbol appear next to the sketch line.
Every time we think we got it right revit cannot make that roof.
I can only make this clearer if you sat right next to me had a look at our details and then discuss and try solutions to do this in revit.
Check variable material in the roof structure to create sloped insulation.
The insulation thickness must be at least as thick as the vertical slope else you will receive a warning.
Then in your rectangular sketch for your roof set only one of the purple sketch lines to be slope defining.
Set the pitch i m setting this at 40 degrees again and i am offsetting the pink lines by 200mm at the bottom and the sides only.
By applying the defines slope property to lines of a roof boundary you can create different roof types including flat roofs gable roofs and hip roofs.
By default the whole roof will be sloped.
You can use slope arrows to create slopes on a roof.
For instructions see creating a sloped surface using a slope arrow.
This create an uni directional slope parallel to the arrow.
In this sample i only use one.
You also need to adjust the roof height to match the other roof.
Draw the arrow then click it and change the properties to select the right levels and offsets.
