I've scoured the fourms and have yet to find a post that will help me with my roof questions. I have a project with multiple roof styles, gabled, shed, different slopes, different wall plates/heights, roofs intersected by interior volumes (see attached files). Hopefully the files give a good picture of the issues. I'm having a hard time trying to find the best solution/practice for getting these various roof to work together and look smooth. I feel like I'm close, but not quite there. Some of my issues/concerns are: being sure that where roofs interesect one another the interior spaces don't show multiple roofs intersecting (I imagine this is a matter of combining geometry or subtracting masses, or going back and editing the sketch after figureing out were intersections are), how to solve walls that need to attach to multiple roof pitches and roof overlaps, when roof pitches expose interior walls (how do you make triangular sections of walls so that the upper exterior exposed wall is exterior, while the lower interior portion is interior wall type.) Still fairly new at this. I also understand this is a major couple of topics that I'm hitting up. So any advice or help would be fantastic. I've attached and image of the Revit model that shows what I've started and a link of the plan and roof plan, and I've attached an image of what the elevations are striving to look like. Thanks, Tristan

Looks like your getting there. Basically just break it down into multiple roofs then join them together. Start with the big forms, then use the opening tool to cut away parts of the roofs you don't need. Basically get the shape right, but bigger than needed, then use the opening tool to get rid of the rest. For the arched openings over your entrys, first make the shed roof, then in elevation make a roof by extrustion, then use an opening, tracing your extruded roof to cut the arch shape out of the shed.
