VisualARQ Grasshopper Components

Description

VisualARQ Grasshopper Components allows to create and work with VisualARQ architectural objects inside Grasshopper.

You can create easily walls, doors, windows, openings, beams, columns, roofs, slabs, stairs and railings and obtain their information (area, volume, length, etc...)

Once the VisualARQ geometry is baked, it turns into workable VisualARQ objects inside Rhino. Then you can use the VisualARQ features to create section drawings, floor plans, schedule tables, etc.. and export the full model in IFC file format into BIM platforms such as Revit, ArchiCAD, Tekla, etc...

The VisualARQ Grasshopper Components are automatically installed when installing VisualARQ.

Problem when baking walls created with wall extend component of VisualArq

by Orlando Carlos Olmos

I have a problem with the walls created with the wall extend component that I have used to extend a regular wall to a roof. The result of the baking to Rhino is only the lower part of the wall.

    Hi Orlando, the wall extend component only works if the geometry where the wall extends to is a referenced geometry in Rhino. So the workaround to cope with this limitation is:

    1. Bake the geometry where the wall extends to.

    2. Reference that geometry with a Geometry Param.

    3. Connect that Geometry Param to the Wall Extend Component, G imput.

    4. Now you can bake the wall

    We will investigate how to improve this worflow.

    Regards,

      Hi!

      Is this issue already solved?

      I am getting a "Solution Error: eInvalidInput" when inputting grasshopper generated geometry into the component.

      Thanks!
