Curtain Wall by temper #5

When you have a "clear vision of the dividing lines, or want to design a climbing wall" case. 
Let's start form Lesson #4. You can divide the Faces of a Mass by Planes. These could be Levels and/or Grids, if you want to make it easily constructable, or Reference Planes with no limitation of directions. Just select the Intersects command on the Ribbon, and follow the guidance on the Status Bar at the bottom of the screen. 

You can see the division in different view options. Surface / Pattern / Component
I have seen this problem before, that time we solved the problem, with a non-Revit way. That time, we had to Import a divided face to Revit. Unfortunatelly from the final design it was obliterated...
Sorry János, the image is from Google...
We tried to plot it in 3D, but this is another story:

 If you have any further question about Curtain Walls, do not hesitate, ask. That could be the 6th chapter ;)

Curtain Wall by temper #4

I had to think about this solution, when we had to follow the visions of a bunch of designers hour-by-hour. This was critical, because I was sitting on the Structural Engineers side and we had to create Formwork and Rebar Drawings with a tight deadline. 
The main idea is, to Create a Mass, whitch could be a real mass, or just Surfaces. All faces of the Mass can be divided to smaller ones. In Conceptual state you can add Curtains System easily to them
Or you can use a Pattern for the division, whitch works exactly the same as we saw at Curtain Walls

The post before this gets sense here! On a Division Pattern you can use Pattern Based Curtain Panels, not only layout ideas. The offspring is a distorted construction divided to flat triangular faces!
