hello, when i use the fascia in the project, it appears with a vertical offset. Does this have to do with the lines of reference when creating the fascia? if yes how to correct the problem? thank you !
Hi, Travis. Thanks for nice tutorial. Could you, please, tell me how you created the profiled surface on the facades? I'm struggling to create them for the roof..
There's a number of ways you could achieve this. One would be to create a curtain wall profile and use it on a secondary roof using the Sloped Glazing roof system family. The profile of the curtain wall mullion would actually be the standing seam and the panel portion would act as the flat portion of the metal cladding. So this secondary roof would simply act as the cladding for a structural roof beneath it. You could do this as well with a sloped Beam System employing a structural framing profile. The simplest way would be an In Place component with a sketched profile and then simply array this across the roof hip. The real ammunition though is the profile itself, and then employing it with the system family you are most comfortable with. Sorry for the delayed response Tamar, I've made some career changes and haven't been posting lately, but hopefully that helps. Thanks for watching!
For this, try using a Model In Place component. It will allow you to create it with the Roof category; draw it as an extrusion from the gable face of your roof. You will need to set this face as the reference plane or create a reference plane that is coplanar. If there is a return on the gable end, you can recreate this as another small roof where the gable end edge and two side edges are slope defined, and the edge at the face of the gable end wall is not.
DIDN'T WORK... I created the closed profile but when I click reference first and then the profile line, the lock doesn't come up - so I selected lock from the ribbon. restraints all look in place, but when I do to create another profile of different dimensions, says restraints not satisfied and asks if I want to remove the restraint?
Unlock your constraints. The geometry should be aligned and locked to the reference planes, but the dimensions that become your parameters cannot be locked, or they will not function as flexible parameters. At the bottom of your screen, you should be able to find a 'reveal constraints' toggle that will highlight all the dimensional and align locked constraints in a burgundy colour.
