troducción a su plugin de modelado paramétrico, Grasshopper.
Con este tipo de herramientas podemos pensar formas más allá de las cajas para diseñar, porque seremos capaces controlar con total rigor geometrías muy complejas.
En el siguiente video, podemos ver un ejemplo realizado durante un curso impartido anteriormente en Madrid por el profesor, Francisco Tabanera, en el que se realiza una interpretación del proyecto de BIG para la Biblioteca Nacional de Kazajstán.

next level.
This Parametric Design course will provide the participants with the necessary knowledge and ability to use Grasshopper, a free visual programming plugin in Rhinoceros; you will be guided through a series of hands-on exercises that highlight NURBS modeling and its concepts. We will introduce Grasshopper as a graphical algorithm editor tightly integrated with Rhino’s 3D modeling tools. You will also learn how Rhino is used to render models for visualization, translate 3D models for prototyping, and export 3D models into 2D CAD or graphics programs.
English is the course main language.

ll geometry.
The difference with programs like Inventor is that they are made for production, regardless of the fabrication method. I won't go into detail about that, and instead focus on the modeling process.
In this little model, the starting point actually is a bit obvious, the foundation.
The only contents in the 3dm file are 27 lines. These indicate the location of each footing, and the direction of the tilt of each column. Everything else is defined in GH with the use of numbers as input parameters.
Needless to say, instead of those lines you could obviously generate lines and control the number of columns and panels, hence establish their layout, with any algorithmic or non-algorithmic criteria you please. That marks a major difference between GH and Inventor.
You can generate geometry with Inventor via scripting/customization (beyond iLogic), with transient graphics for visual feedback similar to GH's red-default previews. However Inventor's modeling functions are not set to input and output data trees. I won't go into detail on that, but suffice to say that the data tree associativity of GH was for me the first major difference I noticed. I've used other apps with node diagram interfaces like digital fusion for non-linear video editing since the late 90's, so the canvas did not call my attention when I first started using GH.
Anyways, here's a screen capture of the foundational lines:
In the first group of components, the centerlines of the rear columns are modeled:
And the locations in elevation for connection points are set. Those elevations were just numbers I copied from Excel, but you can obviously control that any way you please. I was just trying to model this quickly.
The same was done for the rear columns:
The above, believe it or not, took me the first 5 hours to get.
Here's a screen capture of what the model and definition looked like after 4 hours, not much:
If you're interested, next post I can get into the sketching part you mentioned, which is a bit cumbersome with GH, but not really.
I wouldn't say that using GH to do this little model was cumbersome, it just needed some thinking at the beginning. You do similar initial thinking when working with a feature-based modeler.…

itual:
dll and gha files unblocked
Rhino5 64bit SR11 and GH 0.9.0076 (evaluation version)
.NET framework 4.5 or later
COFF loading turned off (either the global setting or just for Kangaroo2, following the instructions above)
I´v my kagaroo2 dll and gha files in local machine
I worked at windows 8.1 (64 )and windows 7 (86)
The kagarro2 work´s in these machines without problems
only the Grap component does not work...
I´d an educational lab licence for Rhino, and I´ll try to work with another one maybe it does not work with newest release, my licence is SR 7
I install the Rhno 5 version SR11 but will expire in 30 days…

your surface in order to do it with more control points, these new points will be attracted by curves and moved on z by a factor depending on distance from curve, changed by graph mapper and by a constant thickness. This will give you 2 surfaces, one unchanged an another on the top. These surfaces will be closed by lofting their edges and joined.
The closed surface will be meshed and send to bowerbird waffle.
…
pper, it appears that half of the surfaces are now flipped (normals now pointing to the inside of the polysurface). I've tried to use a guide surface, I tried offsetting points along the normal to test for inclusion and then flip. I've even tried to flip normals manually by mutliplying the normal by -1.0...no matter what I try, can't seem to get all surfaces to be in the same orientation. Any insight would be appreciated...

Rhino SR6 on win xp

Thanks!

here's an image of what i get when i do the dir command in rhino:
here's what i see when i display normal vectors in grasshopper:
…
ould be interesting to add a label to the size that can represent certain parameter in the definition.
For example, grasshopper's dimension Label representating a name slider.
That way we can find the dimensions associated with an easier setting.

ted by tool conversion, but it seems to be strange because when i put the same file into ECOtect Weather Tool i can run weather data graphs, like this one:
I hope you can help me. Thank you in advance.
(i attached my epw file, by Notepad++ i noticed too many "question marks")
