Hi,

I'm trying to create a curved roof with bullnose eaves.

Attached is a pic from AutoCAD showing what I would like to acheive.

Essentially, the roof has two curves as seen from the end elevation and is extruded down the length of the building.

I would appriciate some advice on the best way of creating this.

Cheers.

You can create this roof by extrusion in the horizontal direction.  Use the profile that you show in elevation.

I tried roof by extrusion.

 

Whilst it creates the roof OK, it only has square or plumb edges, and not bullnose (i.e. round).

Am I missing something?

Use the create "In-Place" in "Roof" category and choose "Solid Extrusion" then draw the shape like you want...

Sorry - Another question about this!!

Whats the best way of cutting the walls to the underside of the roof?

The cross walls, I did edit profile and picked the underside of the roof which worked a tread, but I can't do this with the walls along the length of the roof due to the curve.

Is there a better way?

Thanks.

D-oh!

So OK, you can attached a wall to a roof - that was easy!
