algorithmic modeling for Rhino

Any good ideas how to write a nice-looking GH definition with a few of the named missing parametric options?

 

Between two building parts a glasroof ought to cover the atrium.

The two slab-edges with irregular ground plan both in different levels (height).

 Both curves determined using a simple rhino-patch-surface and projecting their course on it,

after working out a fitting basic-concept for the main two curves which build up such a planar faced surface.

 All single Z ordinates of the curves had to be moved until the given intersection of roof-surface and building-edges matched.

Orientation of curves, paneel-dimensions, slope of the roof and computational smoothing the two resulting basic curves of the new surface (the resulting tolerance now is 0.0001m), were not part oft he parametric definition since achieving the volitional results with rhino CAD or GH step by step was fast enough, for this moment.

 

A few handicaps such as editing the options of the numeric sliders all at once or get a quick start result for a „best fitting“ surface using the galapagos solver (it took to much time),

did fortunately not influence the finishing of this 100 meter long, double curved atrium-glass-roof just as little as my own incompetence in scripting, thanks tot he good nature of GH as working-tool.
