Balkan architects has helped me sooo much during my university and career I can't even express. thank you thank you. also TheRevitKid, you are awesome!! thanks for this video
Than was awesome trip into the roofs' world gyus! You're my two favourite BIM guys (apart from Nicolas Catellier from RevitPure and Aussie Bim Guru-Gavin Crump). Thanks for tones of tips!
It is amazing to see you both, thanks to you I have learned a lot about revit, I have always wondered if you are related, you look like cousins or brothers, ajoajao. Thanks for all the tutorials
A quick scenario for use with the cutoff would be when having to deal with height limits imposed by the city / jurisdiction. Say here in Colorado most areas have a 35' height limit (measured in some of the most insane ways). This would be a good way to quickly model a hip roof that may impose on that height limit, and set it to have a "flat spot". Makes it easier than using the hole tool to pop a hole in the roof to model out the flat spot.
I guess I could see that being a way to visually SEE where the cutoff would be… But, my point was you could easily do that within your sketch of your hip roof… That’s all. I get your point, though.
Hello, at 46:40 instead of creating a roof, it is possible to use the same tool as at 49:18, it's much easier! EDIT : I'm talking about the "joint roof" tool, it also works with walls
@@TheRevitKid Sorry my English is bad. I meant that it is not necessary to create a second roof for the part that goes against the wall, with the "Joint roof" tool; you can extend the roof to the wall, as you did for the skylight, to the roof. This tool also works with walls! I can't put an image in commentary or video .. too bad.
How would it work if you wanted to have a roof with an overhang, but wanted a flat bottom for say the patio area, so that the walls didn't go all the way up the roof height. Would you just extend the ceiling out to that area? or would you create a second floor for that area? I hope that makes sense.
finally had time. Thanks. very informative... now need to think about what & how to incorporate it in my workflow. also, just thought of a use for cutoff level maybe. Vaulted with flat center ?
Got a question. If anybody can answer it, hopefully. Why do the roof lines in the plan view not connect? I appreciate the 3 d model shows the hips and valleys connecting, but as we are creating drawings to build from, at what point do the roof lines connect in plan view TIA
@@TheRevitKid don’t sweat it I should’ve reiterated “it wasn’t helpful (at the time).” I just figured how to make it literally about 10min before you responded
You guys are amazing!!! Never went to school for Revit, but I’ve learned sooo much from your videos. I really appreciate your channel. Much love from Florida.
Re: Cutoff level - I have read you're supposed to be able to use this feature if your roof thickness isn't the same throughout -- for example at rafter tails that get sistered onto TJIs just where they project over the top plate. I cannot tell you exactly how to do this because I never got it to work satisfactorily. Maybe you are clever and can figure it out!
I think the cutoff level would be helpful if the roof stops at a certain point and then continues at a higher point, think something like Japanese roofs. Does such a use make sense, or is it still just easier to trace out the outline of the roof?
Hi all. In 49th min, Milos is talking about joining two roofs together, using roof join tool. That is great when both roofs are on the same plane, but if one roof is lower than the other one, that command is no longer working! I had to join two roofs manually by extending one roof into the other, joining them to see where the intersecting plane lines are going to be, drawing reference planes over them, unjoining the roofs and then modifying the roof edges of one of the roofs (or both if you want to create a dormer opening. If there is any other way of solving this problem, please do let me know. Cheers ;)
Modify sub elements is only available for truly flat roofs. What if the flat roof was sloping front to back (ex 1/4: 12) how would you go about creating the saddles? Thanks
@@TheRevitKid Thanks for replying. Once you've used modify sub-elements to do one thing to the roof (in this case slope it) if I then wanted to create a saddle affecting only the insulation layer, The variable in the roof properties is no longer available to do this (test it out).
This was fun! Thanks for having me on! :)
You're welcome any time Milos ! Thanks for coming on and dropping some awesome knowledge bombs...
Thanks for sharing
@@Ruma_studio did you try it
That was great, suggest checking out Mika Nari's comment and the replies.

I could have used this years ago, it would have saved so much frustration. I will bookmark it for my beginner friends! Thank you both.
You never stop learning 😁
Well that switched on a few light bulbs with a couple of roofs I struggled with. Awesome.
Glad it helped!!!
This is so open for both beginners and advanced Revit users. Thanks, I have been following @balkanarchitect for some time.
Cheers!!

Haha we are not related… or at least we don’t know if we are! :)
Watching this video is like learning from two legends
@@ivasong 🙏🏻🙏🏻
wow excellent! super helpful ill try this another ideas. Thanks be to God
Cheers!! Glad you enjoyed it !
Thank you for providing a nice tutorial.
1am when live going on. But not miss to watch this at the morning. Good approach n well explained by Balkan architect.👍👍
Cheers! Glad you could tune in!

One of my goals in life is to one day be on your show!
Cheer man! ❤️
Thank you very much for your great demonstration of Roof modeling, Balkan. BTW, are you still using the Revit tool under student license?
oh i was wonder when i saw both of you on same platform and confused for a time which one is Balkan 😆😆
hehe... you'll never know!!
Awesome teaching Sir
You guys are awesome.
Thank you!
My head is going in bubbles right now
haha 😂

Not sure what you mean? I don’t think the dormer too would have don’t what the roof by extrusion did for that overhang…
I believe your talking about the join roof tool instead of the roof by extrusion? if so join roof only works to join two roofs... I believe
@@studioEARL Exactly, and NOT !! it's possible with a wall ! i use it everydays :)

I would create a second ceiling for under the patio … just like you would build it! Model it like you build it is always the best approach!

Thanks for tuning in… I could see cutuff level and vaulted ceilings… perhaps
related question: is there any way to square the top of a single sloped roof? without creating a void that is hidden
cool

hi do you provide tutor for this software
Last roof has one problem technically in one out of six elements of roof
👍👍👍👍
Muito bom... obrigado
For my next trick😂
Hehe. :)
Highfi 🎉🎉
nice
Hi from Calexico Ca. how can i get a roof over a bay window
Just model the footprint and add slopes on all the sides you want sloped….
Thank you so much Sir for this beautiful content. 🙂🏚️🏤
Both of you are Awesome
Cheers! Thanks for tuning in!
for me specifically this video was not help-full at all when it came to making a gable roof
So sorry to hear that... I thought it was very helpful and I have been using Revit for 18 years. :)

29:50 Very useful for this type of roof, check the link, wartabengawan.id/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/IMG-20220318-WA0049.jpg
Cheers! YEs!!!
You guys are amazing!!! Never went to school for Revit, but I’ve learned sooo much from your videos. I really appreciate your channel. Much love from Florida.
In India we use the roof , that satisfies the cutoff option on roof in rivit😊
You guys are amazing continue to inspire and educate young architects we appreciate you guys much love form 🇯🇲🇯🇲
Cheers man!! Thanks for tuning in and the kind words!
No problem 👌🏾
