Complex roof design.
I need to create a design for a space with a rather complex roof — see https://postimg.cc/gallery/gn0fPx0 (click on the photos). I’ve figured out the walls—many of the pillars have been removed—but I find the roof complicated. Could someone advise me on how to build it? Thank you in advance.

Re: Complex roof design.
It depends on how much detail you want to implement.

Little detail: use the Generate roof plugin to generate the roof.

Much detail: build the roof as in the image Karkas-woonkamerkant.

and https://www.sweethome3d.com/support/forum/viewthread_thread,13989#66109
That is not as much work as it looks since it's just a few different parts that are repeated.
You can still use the roofgenerator to create the outside toplayer.
