Problem with an elevation

[zarki94]

I'm having a really bad problem with the elevation since the house is at an angle and has a really complicated roof. If someone would have a look and tried to explain to me how to do it I'm just at first year of university and I'm having a a difficult time with this elevation. I also need to do an isometric which could give me some difficult time aswell is someone could have a look and tell me what I can do, I gave it few shots now and im still thinking im stock at the same point.

The house looks something like this in a model form

It would help to line things up, the lower plan doesn't line up with the upper plan. Do the elevations in the dwg have anything to do with the plan or are they just there to use as height references for the other building.

the other elevation is for heights purpose only

the extra lenght that i need is 150mm

Are you doing this in 2D or 3D? I am not on my CAD computer so I cannot view your drawing at this time.

its a elevation in 2D but the building is kite shape + its at an angle so it makes it super impossible for me :/

Can you model it in 3D then extract the 2D views that you need?

[steven-g]

Draw vertical lines from all the building corners and door/window edges, and horizontal lines from all the heights on your example elevations, then it is just a question of working out which lines to trim and where to draw your roof lines, it might look odd because it isn't in perspective, but if things are in the right spot it should make sense. It might be easier to use different coloured lines for different elements, or just do a few lines at a time so that the drawing doesn't get too busy.

I had a chance to look at your steep angled roof and this is what I came up with.

View = SE isometric. No perspective.
