Mark Aceto Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 (edited) I created a roof with a (NURBS) interpolated surface but I'm not sure how to create a surface array to add 2x12's and purlins. I might be able to fake the 2x12's (texture) with materials but I would still need to figure out how to extrude the surface 1.5" Edited November 18, 2020 by Mark Aceto 1 Quote Link to comment
Mark Aceto Posted November 22, 2020 Author Share Posted November 22, 2020 (edited) @Pat Stanford and @michaelk thanks for your help! Decomposing the interpolated surface into NURBS surfaces before creating surface arrays worked! I was able to create fairly complex array items (with materials) to align the purlin ends flush with the roof trusses. I converted the framing members into symbols to keep the file size down. There's definitely some wonkiness in the details but this was a huge step in the right direction. Going to drape a roof membrane onto it tomorrow...
