I am trying to make a roof by mass. the mass is an elliptical form with alternating segments of ridges and valleys which are curved in shape mimicking fabric. the mass is generated properly but when i try to do roof by face the error it is giving me that some of the faces of the mass are facing in wrong direction. the issue it seems is that the roof wont happen with a face facing downwards. But how do I change the orientation of the face in mass environment. 

Attached are the images of the mass and the error in the project environment. note that I am only doing a part of the roof in the attached image.
