      If you attach your model we may be able to sort it out.

        This is a quick example of how I would look at it.

          Ok I will, thank you. Image is how I did it, or one of three ways not to do it. πŸ˜‰

            Box, I never would have considered using a section plane for construction. Hand on heart you are a true master πŸ‘

              I was able to make a paneled triangular section of roof with your model after I did a bit of cleaning up. I move the model near the origin and removed all the extraneous hidden geometry in the panel.
              Have a go doing what you want with this version and see if it makes a difference.

                  Yes, I gave you back the pieces for you to try.

                    By cleaning up the corrugated geometry I was able to make it one sheet and simply intersect it with the triangle.
                    Try not to creat so many hidden edges. And the 'thickness' faces are not necessary if you are going to chop through the faces.
