- Create a new 9" Corrugated Deck + Insulation roof by extrusion on the southern building by selecting either the north or south wall as a work plane.
- Draw the saw-tooth pattern shown in the image below, with 6'6" hypotenuses and 45 degree angles for all the teeth. The remaining segment should be a flat line.
- Duplicate this roof type and call it 3" Corrugated Deck. Delete all layers except the core layers and the thickness is 3".
- Edit the roof you created to have a 3" vertical offset to correspond to the thickness of the roof.
- Extend the length of the extruded roof to cover the entire building. Use the Attach Top/Base tool to close the gaps between the walls and the roof.
Tip: If you cannot see the entire roof, change the extents of the 3D view box.
