Each dimensioned and at a precision where you can get a shop to fabricate not a model of the building but the actual building. All of this is constrained by lord knows how many variables. The parts aren't modelled, they're defined parametrically and computed, and the casual user is not going to be able to do this.
go get the panel plug-in that was split from the archcut plug in and be proved wrong

yes you can make scripts to do more advanced panel shapes but the ability with out knowing so much is totally accessible available and FREE

UPDATE: a new version of Panel Tools came out (minutes) after i posted this
