Enhancing efficiency of A.E.C

Approximating NURBs curve with a polyline. It would be helpful for someone Who exports the final result from Rhino to other platforms(which has the minor capacity of NURBS) Who wants to approximate a curve with a proper number of vertices. Benefit Approximate curve to polyline with a proper amount of points As a result of 1, utilize the computer resource efficiently Solve the compatibility issue between platforms (E.g. Rhino to AutoCad)  Summary  This article will tackle the method to convert NURBS to polyline that is as similar as possible with a proper amount of vertices. Main  One of the biggest issues between platforms is how to interpolate data. For example, for the curves which we are literally naming curve, there are plenty of problems to import and export it.  If you have ever exported a curve from Rhino and checked in Autocad, you may have found some problems. One that I found is the curve is not represented well enough so that ...

How to automate the optimization process?  It would be helpful for someone Who already knows how to set up optimization Who has plenty of objects to optimize with an identical template but in the scarce amount of human resource Benefit As this process minimizes the manual operation, it can diminish the takt time. So the story changes from "How many human resources you have" to "How many computers you have". Summary  In this article, I will focus on the methodology on how to automate the optimization process in grasshopper when there are multiple objects and they comply with the identical optimization template. Main  During the time I served as facade consultant, there was a project which aimed to optimize several objects with identical optimization template. At the time, the main platform was CATIA (from Dassault System ). Thanks to its special structure which is called Geometrical set , CATIA was eligible for the scenario; put optimi...

Autodesk University Rhino to Revit data interpolation For me, it is the best practice of data interpolation between Rhino and Revit. Maybe some of you don't understand why kind of that process is required. As a man who worked on the fabricator side, Keep proper geometry is very important.  Revit is good for management-wise. In other words, for the stakeholder that care about the schedule - in a nutshell, general contractor - Revit is a great tool. They can extract all the data concerned with scheduling; excel, simple clash detection and the navisworks data.  But for fabricator - who cares predominantly precise products - Revit is not an attractive tool. As the fact that it has a low capacity of NURBS geometry, and doesn't represent under a certain degree accuracy, etc. They need mostly NURBS data.  So I think in practice, people need to keep the two kinds of data. IFC data for scheduling purposes and NURBS data for fabrication purposes. More directly keep...
