Gable Roof Over Interior Room

[stanyite]

I am working on a plan with a "great room" section that is open to the 2nd floor with vaulted ceilings and exposed trusses.  The butler's pantry in the kitchen is in part of this "great room" section.  I want to build a gable roof over the butler's pantry and finish it with copper sheet metal.  How can I build the pantry roof without disturbing the main roof?

 

(I would gladly add images but I've tried for a half hour to attach some .jpg images and I keep getting an error message.)

Something like this?

Yes, Eric, something very much like that.

To simulate the roof, use half walls and raise the heights. Use a triangle shape and add the material to it.

 

You may have to use 3 triangle shapes to get effect you want.

 

Suite will not build roofs on interior rooms.

OK, LawB10, I'll give that a try and let you know how it works out.  (How about some suggestions on how I can include images in my posts?  I've tried using

attachments and embedding .jpg images in my posts but nothing works.) Thanks.

Thanks, Solver.  I'll try this when I get home.
