Click-and-drag from one corner of the wall top to the other. Select Roof and Roof Mode Select a roof by double-clicking it. Rotate In wireframe mode rotate the square handle shown in a circular motion.
Peak The peak handle is the top center pink handle between the two red handles. The peak can be adjusted vertically and horizontally: Vertical Height: Drag peak up or down. Example: Height of Roof In wireframe mode adjust roof elevation with the pink handle between the blue handles. Example: Delete To delete the entire roof, double-click it to get in to wireframe mode and press the delete or backspace keys.
Move Click-and-drag the finished roof or the semi-transparent part of a wireframe roof to slide it around at current height. Hide Right-click a roof and choose Hide from the pop-up menu.
Lock To lock a roof so you can't accidentally change it, right-click it and choose "Lock. Resize Roof Area The roof area is the foundation - the part that sits on top of a structure.
You cannot change the roof area in finished mode. Overhangs Create overhangs In finished mode by dragging blue handles downward. Adjusting Roof Edges Drag blue or red handles on finished roofs to extend roof edges or sides. Example: Reset Roof Edges If roof edges are not working as you expected and you want to reset them and start over, right-click the roof and choose "Reset Roof Edges. Example: Paint and Materials Apply shingles to roof tops by dragging them in from the Directory.
Fit Wall to Gabled Roof Here how to add a point to the top of a wall and fit it to the roof peak: Create walls and draw a roof on them Figure 1. Automatically creating the basic roof styles in Home Designer can be easy using the Roof panel located in the Wall Specification dialog. The Pitch value set in the Build Roof dialog only sets the default pitch for all roof planes in a plan. The pitch, along with the roof style can be overwritten on a per-wall basis by accessing the Roof panel that wall's specification dialog.
For this tutorial we will begin by creating a basic 40' x 30' enclosed rectangular structure as shown in the image below. A hip roof has a roof plane built over every exterior wall in the plan that does not have another wall drawn above it, as shown in the image below.
To create a basic gable style roof, we need to tell the program to not build a hip roof plane over the two 30' walls in our plan. An offset gable roof is a type of gable roof with different pitches on each of the two roof planes and a ridge that is offset from the building's center line.
In a rectangle floor plan the roof areas of a gable end roof on both of the gable ends front edge consists of one gable area and of a hipped end roof area on one on the two eave sides two additional sides. The laterally inclined roof areas eave sides are often equipped with a dormer and thus facilitate an extension or the development of the attic floor.
In a rectangle floor plan the hipped end roof consists of a hipped end roof area on all four sides. Therefore the roof has an inclined roof area on all four sides. The inclination of the roof area can be user-defined. The inclined roof areas offer less contact surface for snow and wind load. Compared to a pyramid hip roof pyramid roof , a hipped end roof does not have a roof top but instead a roof ridge. Planning a mansard roof can create additional living space under the roof. The room slopes inside the roof are hardly noticeable and the created roof space can be used efficiently.
The roof areas of the mansard roof are flatter in the upper part than in the lower part of the roof. The roof angles in the lower part have severe bends in the lower part. Side outshot roofs are roofs where the roof areas or parts of it stick out far beyond the external wall in order to create a shelter in the entrance area or a space for storing wood. The monopitch roof consists of only one inclined roof area. In a rectangle floor plan the roof areas of a monopitch roof on the three gable ends front edge consist of one gable area and of hipped end roof area on one on the two eave sides.
The inclined roof area is always aimed towards the weather-exposed side. Typically, the roof pitch of monopitch roofs is low. Therefore the roof areas provide lots of space for solar collectors and the roof space resulting from this can be used efficiently.
