  1. Your plan did not attach, and LawB10 did not post any images to this thread.

     

    Were you referring to this one?

    I believe that was done with manual roofs. Delete the roof planes that slope down to the atrium, and extend the outer ones up.

     

    You might also try adding a second floor with a single room above the atrium. Make it Open Below and no roof. The auto build roof function may do what you want.

     

     

  2. I did, basically, what you did to form the bump out on the porch. 

     

    Just turned off the floor by defining the room as Open Below. Draw in 3 Room Divider walls to enclose the steps. Make sure a room is created and you will get the roof.

  3. Did you have a question somewhere in there?  :)

     

    Building the bay manually is the way to go, and there is no reason floor and ceiling to not match the adjoining room. It does not need to be separated by an invisible wall from the rest of the room if floor and ceiling heights are the same.

  4. What do you want the roof to look like?

     

    To mirror the plan, I'd use Edit Area as David shows in the video, but use Copy, Reflect About the common wall.

     

    If you want an air gap, draw a CAD line parallel to the common wall and reflect about it.

    Ramps

    Do you have Ramp under the Stair icon? Do you have the Wedge shape in the library? What type of ramp do you want to model?
