M NICK replied to Ben Hait-Campbell's discussion Gridshell Form Finding in the group Kangaroo

"Hi Ben, I just started to work on the form finding of gridshells using Kangroo. I would be appreciated if you could help me from where should I start. Have you come up with any grasshopper definition for that? THanks Nick"

"I’m thinking the same as Sam hear I think. If you are to make it more curved you could go on forever but for all that you are adding more material so essentially making it less efficient. But if you have less material then your curve is…"

Sam Gregson replied to Ben Hait-Campbell's discussion Gridshell Form Finding in the group Kangaroo

"Hello, Please correct me if I'm wrong becuase I'm having a hard time getting my head around the physics of this but... does the weight of the material not influence the shape of the gridshell? That would be the case for the inverse…"

"Thank you Oliver...That is great help but how would you be able to select points from the surface more than the ones in the edges??"

"Hey guys, I am working around the investigation of the form finding shell and I am pretty new with Kangaroo. Would someone be able to post a definition for further understanding or a more simple direction on how i could digitally form it? Thank…"

Maarten Kuijvenhoven replied to Ben Hait-Campbell's discussion Gridshell Form Finding in the group Kangaroo

"Hello Mike, In response to your question about how shallow or deep a grid shell needs to be: a 'deeper' (more curved) grid shell is in general structurally more efficient. The interesting thing about shells is that less…"

"Hay ben. Iv been playing around with Kangaroo for a while now trying to work out the form finding. I cam up with this to select the outer points of a mesh as anchor points. I dont know if it helps or not. Also i was wondering if anyone out there…"

"Hi Ben, It's not included in 0.044, but I'll definitely be including a 'ConstrainToCurve' function in the next version. I can see how this would be quite useful for this sort of thing. Daniel"
