To see how to make a hip roof, see Hip Roof.

2.Make this roof into a two-level roof: open Roof Settings and go to the Multi-plane Geometry tab page.

Click Add to add a second level.

Enter the elevation at which the first level ends (and the second level begins). The pitch can be the same for both levels.

Click OK to close Roof Settings.

3.View the two-level Roof in 3D. Since the pitch is uniform for both levels, you must select it to see where the second level begins.
