Pro Plugin Sketchup Free | Instant Roof
Manual modeling of intersecting roofs often results in "leaks" or non-manifold geometry at the valleys and ridges. Instant Roof Pro employs algorithmic intersection solvers. When two roof masses collide—such as a main gable roof intersecting with a lower shed dormer—the plugin calculates the valley lines and fascia intersections, ensuring a watertight and manifold solid. This is critical for downstream applications, such as 3D printing or energy analysis, where surface continuity is required.
