Tvrdi1976 Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 Hi, Im stil learnin so I hope I will find answer here. I can change height, width, depth and horizontally rotate both beams and slabs. But I cant rotate them vertically. How I can do that? The beams I would like to vertically rotate (slope) are the one colored in wallnut on the upper part of the "garden". They need to be lowered a bit (sloped donwnards) towards the outter end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solver Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 You cannot simply slope a beam. See this thread for one idea: https://hometalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/9129-struggling-to-make-tapered-steel-posts-and-beams/ You could draw a roof plane, build framing after changing the framing to match your design, then copy the framing, delete the roof plane and paste the framing back. A Sloped Soffit might also work -- read in Help or search for more info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tvrdi1976 Posted December 10, 2023 Author Share Posted December 10, 2023 For the love of Earth I dont get it. Roof plane I built. Framing is framing. Where to build it and how to change it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solver Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 Open a new plan and draw a roof plane. Build roof framing if needed. Display framing. Open a roof rafter and review the settings. Make a change -- maybe make it 6" instead of 1 1/2" wide. Or, go to your framing defaults and change them -- rafter size and spacing. Then do the above. All you are doing is letting the program build your sloped framing. Copy the framing, delete the roof plane, paste the framing back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
