ears many bridges had been constructed and even more has collapsed or has been destroyed. Today Warsaw is connected by eight road bridges and two rail bridges, only few of them have a bike lanes. Modern cities are going through rapid changes. Hamburg has announced that in less than 20 years they are closing the center for cars, Copenhagen notes major incrementation in bike use, city bike system has been successfully introduced to many Polish cities. Warsaw bicycle net path is still very weak and probably the most urgent issue is to build a new bridge overpassing the Vistula River. This year Warsaw City Council decided to run an architectural competition for a new bridge. Architecture for Society of Knowledge and Architektura Informacyjna, Master's Programs of Architecture Faculty of Warsaw University of Technology, and Architektura Parametryczna, a digital design educational platform, invite for workshop: Outcome: The primary goal of workshops is to find the most optimal position for new bicycle bridge (or bridges) in Warsaw to enhance the global accessibility and Walkscore. During the workshop the participants will develop an interactive tool that will help to understand the accessibility changes by connecting Vistula shores with bicycle bridges. Program: Four days event will include coding part and learning how to apply digital tools into urban scale problems along with lectures of invited guests. This workshop is planned for intermediate user that understand and use Grasshopper. The workshop will be conducted in English. Tools: SOFTWARE Rhinoeros, Grasshopper, Silverye, Elk, Shortest Walk, Human, gHowl, Unity HARDWARE: Multimedia tool a multimedia tool designed by Jacek Markusiewicz for data representation and design in VR Tutors: Jacek Markusiewicz is an architect graduated from Warsaw University of Technology and the Master in Advanced Architecture at IaaC Barcelona.

e project, considering its complexity and dimension, required a wide series of IFC files, associated to a specific database of pdf documentations. When I read about your mention “the IFC file generate by DECODE”, the only thing I can imagine is that you grabbed a single file belonging to the hierarchy and probably you didn’t really understand the structure of the whole project database. As Valerio Bonora asked, I’m curios to understand what kind of professional relationship brings together a RhinoForYou trainer with one of the companies that participated to this public procurement. If this relationship doesn’t exist, please let me suggest you to consider the legal implications that your action may produce.
Secondly, reading your phrase “may be i could remodelize all the projet, but in few month not like DECODE, with real frabication constraint, not theoric”, I believe that you have no ideas of the complexity of this project and the series of difficulties that all the participants to the PRO phase met during its development, until the delivery of the procurement documentation. During the development of the project 12 people were dedicated for 6 months just to generate the model. Do you really believe to be able to do the same work all alone in a shorter period?
Probably, as a designer, you are not confident with the phases, relationships, processes and problems which characterize the development of such complex architectural project. Honestly, I cannot understand how you can affirm to be able to cover this work package without any support.
Thirdly, under a merely logical point of view, how can you imagine to find people so proud about their results if they, as you describe, are going to present/represent a “shame”? As Mr. Bonora affirmed, construction companies appreciated the result that we proposed to them and this fact actually distinguishes our reality from your assumptions.
Finally, even if you based your evaluation on a single file of the whole database that composes the Canopée project, even if you probably used this file for purposes that differ from those it was generated for, and even if you met a single bug or a mistake into this file, let me say that your post does not represent a professional approach to reporting and/or debugging. With your negative comment you didn’t allowed us to understand and evaluate the problem, and furthermore to understand where the problems comes from: and this last information, which is still missing, represents the unstable basis of your superficial comment.
Taking distance from your action, I believe that one of the most important concepts associated to a serious and professional approach of a single member into a wider community consists into the ability to accept and/or report each other’s mistakes. Reading your post I don’t feel you as part of this concept, not at all.
Best regards,
Matteo Lo Prete, MScArch.

ich is the following :
"in a box", i would like to create structure made by wooden blades that follow floor, wall and ceiling, but moving from this support due to "curves" which are the most important variables.
Here is my "logic". You will find enclosed to this post my files as well.
In bold what i'm unable to do by myself (i guess) :
Take the square of 25 m x 12 m ; make it a surface
I divide it in "blades" of 20 cm
I take the edges of the "blades"
I divide this edges in 40 points (or equivalent) (A)
I identify my curves (curves) which are on the floors
I identify the crosspoint between my edge-blade and the curves (B)
I have to test the difference between X Y Z of each A and B.
I have to test which B point is the closest of each A
Each A points which is close to B (Distance < 40 cm) must be on the floor
I have to input a math formula in order to représent the movement of A points regarding their distance to B (example : A1 Z = Distance between A1 and B / 2)
If there are 2+ B, that mean that i have "to do something" to get a correct movement. I mean
2 consecutives points must be on the same "plan"
2 height difference between each point must be 0 or a dedicated value
Regarding Ceiling, it is a duplication of the floor but there is coef to apply with Z distance.
2 parallele points on a define axis, example : X, and consecutive can't have more than 20cm of difference
When all points have moves regarding "parameters" and "curves"; i have to do curve linking all the point of a same "line".
After that i duplicate this curve to a upper curve.
Loft
Extrude surface and then, it's done ?
To be clear, i miss the part where i need to make my points move regarding variables...
I'm sorry, RHI Grasshopper projet.3dm does not represent the "need" to have to consecutive point on the same plan

The thing is that if I raise the -aa parameter from 0.05 to 0.1 all works fine..
Is this only related to my PC then?? What should I do to solve this issue?
Thanks again for your help

and fabrication procedures, is being conducted in June-July 2014 in association with Shih Chien University and Tamkang University in Taipei, Taiwan. The interdisciplinary workshop provides an opportunity to architects and designers to be a part of the 12 day studio and investigate interactive design and fabrication solutions for dynamic socio-cultural fabrics.
ExtraFabrica is a part of Dezact’s exploration aiming to develop and test interactive design and fabrication scenarios in neglected or problematic urban interstices and ecologies, to adapt to existing constructs for new use and identity, to catalyse socio-cultural activities and to engage behaviour parallax between physical and virtual environments. Conditions of 'live' factors with extended duration and occupation, i.e. street life, derelict buildings, traffic, rain, dance, demonstration, and so on, are invited to interfere with quantifiable or codify-able parameters set out by design algorithm, feedback mechanism and fabrication dynamics. The idea envisages architectural outcome which enables fabrication of action, of participation, of change of values, of identity, of confluence of voices and dreams.

nts for Ladybug too. They are based on PVWatts v1 online calculator, supporting crystalline silicon fixed tilt photovoltaics.
You can download them from here, or use the Update Ladbybug component instead. If you take the first option, after downloading check if .ghuser files are blocked (right click -> "Properties" and select "Unblock").
You can download the example files from here.
Video tutorials will follow in the coming period.
In the very essence these components help you answer the question: "How much energy can my roof, building facade, solar parking... generate if I would populate them with PV panels"?
They allow definition of different types of losses (snow, age, shading...) which may affect your PV system:
And can find its optimal tilt and orientation:
Or analyse its performance, energy value, consumption, emissions...
By Djordje Spasic and Jason Sensibaugh, with invaluable support of Dr. Frank Vignola, Dr. Jason M. Keith, Paul Gilman, Chris Mackey, Mostapha Sadeghipour Roudsari, Niraj Palsule, Joseph Cunningham and Christopher Weiss.
Thank you for reading, and hope you will enjoy using the components!
EDIT: From march 27 2017, Ladybug Photovoltaics components support thin-film modules as well.

er" logic but it miss when comes the copy or offset.
Here is my following logic
Take the square of 25 m x 12 m ; make it a surface
I divide it in "blades" of 20 cm
I take the edges of the "blades",
I divide this edges in 40 points (or equivalent) (A)
I identify my curves (curves) which are on the floors, which are curves (B)
First i do this "test" :
for each crossroad between A and B, i make a circle of X cm (slider) of diameter and the rule is the following :
* In this circle, the future movement of my A curve must be at Z = 0
Second step :
for each next point, i have to : leave a copy on Z = 0 and rise the second one for a heigh of Y cm (slider) from the ground.
the next (W = slider to chose every each number of point, i decide to do the following point) point, which is a little bit farer from the previous point, must duplicate the same height of Y ; and also be copied to Y + Y cm.
There is a Z number (slider) which is the max height possible for these points, which mean that the next point must be at this very same level except ... The third step scenario.
The purpose is to be able to have flat area, like step in a stairway.
Third step :
The grasshopper must test if the A points are between two or more "area at Z = 0". Why ?
The goal is to obtain something like screen "side view" if there are two starting points at Z = 0.
Which also mean that if there is an odd number of points, the remaining odd number must be at the top of the "stairs"
At this point of the grasshopper, we might be able to obtain, thanks to the sliders the "staircase form" regarding :
- The size of the test circle between A and B curves
- The "footstep" of each points (height)
- The number of points before a "copy of the point + the next footstep rise"
- The max heigh possible for all the point off B curves
And at this moment i have a new problem in my logic. You will get my idea, but it might be wrong as well...
Therefore, and after that, we should be able to link every point by a straight line.
To fillet with P (angle) a line with the following one
To join all the line of a same B curve
To cut it at the center of each circle at Z = 0 (the crossroad of A and B)
To offset it with Q (distance)
To rise a line from the center of each circle at Z = 0
To cut the extra part of each Offset"ed" curve to get an offset curve "aligned in Z" with the original one.
To create loft the original and offset"ed" one
To extrude the surface to a distance of R
And grasshopper "should be done" because, i will duplicate it for the ceiling, reverse the form with a -Z vector to the Y value and modifie my Z in Z' to modify my max height
Could you help me ?
