Sageguide Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 I'm needing help, please. My client wants a curtain wall along back of house that tilts at about a 65-75 degree inward. How can I create this wall? It would run continuously for two stories. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Attached is a CAD profile of what I'm after. Thank you.

johnny Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Personally, I would model in Sketchup or other app (i use Vectorworks) and then import the wall as a symbol. You can leave an invisible wall in the Chief file to close your structure. The only other things i can think of would be to use poly solids for the mullions and then thin poly for the glass, or you may be able to make a roof plane from glass and then just use poly solids for the mullions.

Sageguide Posted December 17, 2016 Author Share Posted December 17, 2016 Yeah, I was afraid it might have to be done with Poly Solids. Thanks for replying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 I was thinking more that I bet you could do this as a roof plane, and probably would be the best solution ...a solid glass plane with poly solids etc for the structure/mullions. Joe modeled an A-frame home in CA that had a roof which extended through to the 1st floor like this and it looked like that might be a solid idea to do this "atrium" curtain wall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
