How to model and build these

Alaa, Student • 2017

I know programs like revit and others can make 3D models for these curves but how to apply it on reality? Do they use just cables tell connect the curved wooden ceiling with the slab? Or they used other materials and techniques.

Jeffrey, Student

Hi Alaa As you already know, there are many ways to obtain this design. Option 1: Cables with a structure perpendicular to the finish material "wood" Or Option 2: It would be a grid for suspended ceiling with cables. But the best ways is to look for the specification of the product from a company of your area. Take care https://www.google.ca/...

Hi Marion, that normally happens when you try and open the ArchiCAD GSM file directly, as the manufacture protects the script (so you can't edit the chair's form). To use it please add it to your product via ArchiCAD's library manager.

Zip files instead of single

I downloaded my first 2 files a bit ago. They were zip files not single files. Is there any way to download a single since Revit will only open a single? I'm new at Revit and maybe someone has a better way to work with this situation? Thanks!

Elmer, Architectural Draftsperson

Scott, It was the Bosch appliances. I got the zip part. I use them all the time but I had to open the zip twice to get to the single Revit file that Revit needed. Seems like some items are double/triple wrapped. Thanks for the follow up. 1 More Answer
