Roof-Wall Transition

Block tab on Model Options dialog under Pitched Roof/Wall Construction Transition header.

 

Allow pitched roof construction

If you wish to allow pitched roofs to be defined for the current block then leave this option in its default checked state. Alternatively, you can force all non-horizontal surfaces to be walls by unchecking this option.

Roof-wall transition angle

When the Allow pitched roof construction option is checked you can enter the angle which defines the surface tilt below which a wall becomes a roof. For example if the roof-wall transition angle for a particular block is 45°, a surface in this block having tilt 40° is modelled as being a roof (using pitched roof constructions, roof glazing layout etc). And a surface having tilt 50° is modelled as being a wall (using wall constructions, glazing layout etc).
