Join Eric Wing for an in-depth discussion in this video Creating rafter-style framing, part of Building Roofs with Revit.
…Okay, it's time to start framing.…Up to this point, all of our roofs have been floating.…Held up as if it's a positive pressure dome or something.…At some point we need to start adding framing to our roofs.…This is going to be good.…It serves both as a lesson in framing, and a lesson in how hard it is to…frame some of those roofs that we easily placed into our models.…By using the beam tool, in conjunction with 3D, we will place a ridge beam and…hip beams.…Then we're going to drop back and…use the beam system tool to frame in our entire roof.…
Then we're going to go back and frame in a dormer type of roof in the front.…So let's jump into our Revit Roofs Model.…And the first thing that I want to do is go to my Floor Plan, 03-ROOF.…The first beam I want to put in is going to be my ridge.…Let's go to the Structure tab.…Let's click on the Structural Framing Beam button.…For Structural Usage, let's go Girder.…Let's make sure that 3D Snapping is turned on.…Let's go to our Properties.…I want to grab a two by twelve.…
