Waffle Structure

Hello,

Im trying to build a large surface constructed in a waffle structure manner but im spending a lot of time trimming out the joints intersections. and i wounder if there is a GH plug-in i can download, that would define these intersections and trim them out.

Thanx

Hi Ibrahim,

Try this:

It's a bit older definition but might do the trick.

Hi Ibrahim A,

Hi Ibrahim A,

"trimming out the joints intersection"...are you talking about this?

If so, i can give you some hints on how to do it. Unfortunately i can't give you the scripts. They're property of the company i work for.

Waffles and especially the intersections are not trivial algorithms and a lot of people use different approaches, that lead to a good result.

The solution you see above (read more here) is for commercial use and works in almost every situation. I made it some time ago and we've used the same solution on several different projects.

Best
