Create a Sloped Ceiling

You can create sloped ceilings and cathedral ceilings in the building model.

To create a sloped ceiling, use one of the following methods:

  • Draw a slope arrow while sketching or editing the ceiling boundary.
  • Specify a value for the Offset from Base property for parallel ceiling sketch lines.
  • Specify values for the Defines Slope and Slope properties for a single ceiling sketch line.

Cathedral ceilings

In Revit, a ceiling element can slope in one direction only.

To create a cathedral ceiling, create multiple ceilings, each with its own slope. Then align and lock the ceilings together to create the cathedral ceiling.

Note:For clarity sketches for 2 separate ceiling elements are shown together in the illustration.
