I am trying to figure out the best way to model an angled roof / wall (see attached) so the curtain wall system will attach to the underside and so we can insert windows & doors. Currently the roof / wall was created as a mass element and we then need to edit the curtain wall profile by tracing the profile of the roof / wall and trimming. This does not seem like to best way to do this. You can see on the attached image the angled wall / roof is not cleaning up properly around the stair tower (on the right side of the attached image). We will also need to insert window and door openings in the angled wall. Does anyone have a better way of creating this form? Or is creating it as a mass element the best way? Thanks

You could try using the roof by extrusion and then doing a cut plan on it. (options bar)

Or you could try using the opening by face tool to cut away the roof by the wall.

The benefit of this would be that you create a roof and not just some mass giving the curtain wall the option to attach

to the roof and adhear to it's shape. (also on the options bar)
