Traditional terracotta crested ridge tiles modeled as a Revit family, featuring decorative perforated upright crests along an angled roof apex cap. This roof accessory represents a classic run of decorative roof cresting tiles finished in warm terracotta brown tones. The profile consists of a standard angled V-shaped ridge cap designed to straddle a roof apex, topped with an ornate upright crest. Each tile section integrates twin rounded scalloped fins pierced with circular perforations, forming a repeating decorative silhouette across the roofline. Distinct joint lines divide the linear module into uniform individual segments, capturing traditional heritage tilework detailing for roof apex junctions.
The download is a 307 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.
Designed for architectural BIM workflows in Revit, this component can be loaded directly into project environments to detail roof ridges. Align and host the family along ridge lines or roof seams using plan, section, or 3D snapping. Material asset properties can be adjusted to match project roofing specifications, while instances can be arrayed or stretched to accommodate various gable or hip roof lengths across schedules and drawing sets.
Ideal for heritage restorations, Victorian renovations, period townhouses, and bespoke residential villas requiring authentic roofline articulation. This asset adds character to exterior elevations, sectional details, and exterior rendering perspectives. It pairs naturally with slate, clay plain tiles, or pantile roof assemblies, providing architects and visualisers searching for crested ridge caps, ornamental roof tiles, and decorative ridge finial detailing with accurate geometry for elevations and client presentations.
