Revit Offset From Roof Base

If you choose truss the plate offset from base is measured from the outside of the wall.

Revit offset from roof base. Extend into wall to core specifies the overhang dimension from the roof edge to the exterior core wall. It s a good idea to do it from your elevation views for accuracy. If the eves are at the same height the overhang is the same and the slope is the same the ridge line will appear in the middle of the roof. For this we have to change the height of the right eave using offset from roof base at a negative value.

This parameter is enabled when a line is set as slope defining and it is not associated with a wall. It is a matter of geometry. Room 1 has a base offset of 0. We used the formula.

Select the wall and use the attach top base button to attach it to the underside of only the 5 1 2 roof. For example in the following section view. Example 1 a roof by footprint with equal slopes of 30 degrees. Offset from roof base.

If you want to adjust the height position of your roof then select the roof and in the properties panel you can change the base offset from level to do that. The lower boundary of the room starts at level 1. To fix your roof select the edge of the roof that is lower in the sketch of the roof. When you are sketching the roof revit assumes all lines of the sketch are at the same height.

I m going to leave mine as it is. Room 2 has a base offset of 1000. Then from the modify tab on your ribbon use the join geometry command and select the 7 1 2 roof and the wall. We want to move the ridge by 1 50 meters to left.

It will join in the wrong order and you will need to use the drop down menu next to join to switch the join order. To move the lower boundary below the base level enter a negative number. See roof boundary line properties. If you choose rafter the plate offset from base is measured from the inside of the wall.
