Curved Roof or Rounded at Ridge and Flowing Over at Edges
Hi All,
I have not encountered a request like this before and wondered if anyone had the best way to go about building the roof?
Any suggestions on how to round ridge and blend roof with siding by curving them together and using same exterior material?
See image attached.

That looks like a job for a molding polyline.

Patrick,
You probably need to do a cad profile of the roof to get the pitches and curves to meet properly.
Then just use the roof tools to build the roof.
Match ridge heights to fascia heights to get then to join.
Do one side then copy and rotate to the other.
Not too hard.Glenn

Anyone want to take a stab at setting a file like this up for me? Contact me if so at my email with cost... need quickly.
I need to create a plan file to use in the future for other buildings of this style, they will all have the same curvature for roof eaves and ridge area, I would just change straight planes based on size of building.
The attached sketch is what I would need the general shape drawn to according to the sample rendering.
