Hi guys,

really really not liking revit much today.

im trying to model a roof, i cant work it out.

i have a house that is being extended. the new roof has to be a few courses higher and at a different pitch.  there will be modifications to the existing roof in order to tie it in and avoid box gutters.

so when im trying to model my roof how can i make it?  if i do two seperate roofs it wont work because i need it to do the curse valleys where the pitch changes meet etc etc.

i suppose what im asking is can i do a roof with different height eaves?  if the higher eave needs to run into a roof face how can i do that?  if i make by footprint it fails as lines are intersecting etc.     very frustrating.

appreciate any help you can give me atall!!  thanks. 

pic attached of the culprit.
