When I started this project we did not know the slope of the roof yet.  So I went ahead and put in all the columns, beams and joist flat. 

What is the easiest way to go about sloping this roof after the fact?  I know I probably need a plane to attaceh to.  But My beams, where the joist bear are down 2 1/2" so I don't want to tell everything to attach to that plane, do I?  (It is sloping from three grid lines but only constant from grid to grid, so maybe I will need three planes)

 

Any suggestins?

If you used beam systems, and used pick supports for your beam system, then if you change the elevations at each end of each primary beam (girder), could be wall top, the beam system will follow. So you can effectively warp the roof by doing so.

yes - that is what I am doing - I just thought there might be a way to grab like a whole grid line of beams and columns and everything attached to them and lower accordingly.  I think that is called "The Easy Button".
