By adding a radial curtain wall, we can go into an elevation and actually create a roof by extrusion. Once we're done doing that we're going to attach the curtain wall to the extruded roof, then we're going to hide the roof, giving us a curved top on a radial curtain wall. So in our project browser under elevations, let's go to our east elevation or whatever elevation is pointing straight at your radial curtain wall. What I want to do now is create a roof by extrusion.

In essence, it doesn't know where to start or end our roof. That's okay, we're just going to physically pick a plane, then once we're done, we're going to grip edit it to be a little bit…
