ThinkParametric – Roof Structure (Centre Pompidou Metz)

Title: ThinkParametric – Roof Structure (Centre Pompidou Metz)

In this course, we’re going to model an organic roof structure to a schematic design level and for our reference project we’re going to use the Centre Pompidou in Metz from Shigeru Ban architects. We’ll start by generating the pattern for the roof structure flat on the construction plane and we’ll show you the logic behind this interesting pattern using Grasshopper 3D.

Next up, we’re going to model the roof shape, using a plugin for Rhino called T-splines. This plugin will allow us to model organic shapes more fast and accurate. When we’ve modeled the roof shape, we’ll use Kangaroo, a physics engine plugin for Grasshopper, to relax the roof shape to a more natural form.When we have the final shape of the roof, we’ll jump back to our pattern we generated in the beginning of the course and project that pattern on the roof shape using Grasshopper again.

Finally when we have our structural lines projected, we’ll use Grasshopper to generate the structural beams and generate the interwoven pattern of the structure.

标题: ThinkParametric — — 屋顶结构 (中心蓬皮杜梅斯)

在此过程中，我们要去模型有机屋顶结构原理图设计水平和为我们的参考项目，我们要从坂建筑师使用在梅斯蓬皮杜中心。我们先来生成平放的施工平面屋顶结构的模式，我们将向你展示这个有趣的图案，用蚱蜢 3D 背后的逻辑。

下一步，我们要模型屋顶形状，称为 T-样条的犀牛使用插件。这个插件将使我们能够更快速、 更准确的模型有机形状。当我们曾经有过建模屋顶形状时，我们将使用袋鼠，蚱蜢，物理引擎插件来放松屋顶形状到更自然的窗体。当我们有屋顶的最终形状时，我们会跳回到我们我们在课程的一开始生成的模式和再次使用蚱蜢屋顶形状上项目这种模式。

最后当我们有我们预测的结构线，我们将使用蚱蜢来生成结构梁，生成交织在一起的结构模式。
