Scheduling - Parametric Brick Wall

Hello All,

I have designed a parametric brick veneer wall. This wall is a feature wall for a house.

The wall consist of Flemish bond (stretcher face & header face alternate).

There are 38 horizontal courses & 760 bricks in total, of which 361 are headers. Out of these 361 headers, i have made a selection of 161 headers which protrudes out by 60mm to form a random pattern.

Attached is Rhino + GH Definition to get an idea.

This wall will be built course by course by Human Labour

I want some suggestion if there is any efficient way of scheduling 'protruding bricks and their exact location' to communicate with the brick layer on how to build it. Can Rhino / Grasshopper generate schedule for me?

Primarily all my drawings are in AutoCAD, but we also have Revit in my office if GH to Revit crossover may help?

All suggestions / advises may by helpful.

Regards

I looked at your definition but decided to start clean. Hopefully it can be adapted to your needs. I was going to print the sequencing into the drawing with the 3DText tag but ran out of time for right now.
