: Joining 2 shapes together in Illustrator. and removing a section while having rounded corners. Illustraor newbie How do I join these 2 shapes together, and then remove the line in the roof?

@Nimeshi706

If the path is just a stroke, you merely need to delete a section and add the new section making certain the anchors are connected. Stroke rounding will be retained.

It's an extremely simple shape. Why not just draw two rectangles and a triangle, arrange them accordingly and assign them a stroke with “rounded joints”.



Then select them all and use Pathfinder's “Add” operation.



That's it! This way, you can easily adjust the stroke thickness as required:
