If we had to do this by making one roof then we had to do a complicated dance with base line offsets and very short slope arrows.
One slope roof revit.
Of slope arrows must not lie in interior of slope defining lines message was driving me nuts when making a simple sloped roof shed roof.
Every time we think we got it right revit cannot make that roof.
Want a sloped structure or a sloped insulation in your flat roof.
On the properties palette select or clear defines roof slope.
Creating a roof with different eave heights you can create a roof with slope defined lines at different.
The tail is the low point and the head is the high point.
This create an uni directional slope parallel to the arrow.
Draw the arrow then click it and change the properties to select the right levels and offsets.
Go back into your roof plan and draw another smaller roof this time the defines roof slope the little triangles is set on the left and right lines.
To create a slope for an odd shaped roof like the one below use slope arrow.
The following example shows a roof that you can create in revit lt using a slope arrow.
Creating complex roof in revit.
Create a sloped roof in revit step 1 draw your roof step 2 define the slope.
By applying the defines slope property to lines of a roof boundary you can create different roof types including flat roofs gable roofs and hip roofs.
You will see a slope symbol appear next to the sketch line.
Highlight one of the sketch lines and check the defines slope checkbox in the options bar.
Then in your rectangular sketch for your roof set only one of the purple sketch lines to be slope defining.
To specify roof pitch select a slope defining boundary line click the numeric slope definition.
I can only make this clearer if you sat right next to me had a look at our details and then discuss and try solutions to do this in revit.
Set the pitch i m setting this at 40 degrees again and i am offsetting the pink lines by 200mm at the bottom and the sides only.

Check variable material in the roof structure to create sloped insulation.
Use slope arrows to define slopes on a roof such as a 4 sided gable roof.
8 set variable material for sloped insulation.
You also need to adjust the roof height to match the other roof.
See hd version of video tutorial here.
You can use slope arrows to create slopes on a roof.
For instructions see creating a sloped surface using a slope arrow.
The insulation thickness must be at least as thick as the vertical slope else you will receive a warning.
In sketch mode select a roof boundary line that defines slope indicated by.
