I am wondering if anyone could help me understand how to put together the roof attached. I am pretty new to revit and I am really struggling to figure it out.

The main house with gables should be one roof, the front and rear shed roofs should be seperate.

Look at this forum post:

• And pay attention to this image by pijpiwo on his post, his solution is better than mine was:

That funky roof sketch line notch is not even necessary (as shown in the other thread). Just splitting the line is enough.

By this link: https://measuredsurvey365.co.uk/revit-roof-forms/ you can download a file with a large number of roofs.

And from this link: https://measuredsurvey365.co.uk/projects-of-revit-experts-railway-station/ you can download a model of a railway station with a complex roof and see how it is made.
