These days, architecture is getting bolder and more wavy. As a result many structural engineering firms are having to model in Revit against this bold architecture. To say the least, it can be quite challenging and time intensive to model curved structural framing members that correctly follow complex forms. It can be even more frustrating, when these members have been modeled, and then the architect further tweaks the design resulting in a massive rework on the part of the modeler. For this reason, during a recent advanced training class for a world-renowned structural engineering firm, I thought up a new workflow using Dynamo which could allow designers to respond to frequent architectural changes and reduce tedious rework where possible. I knew I had seen Marcello Sgambelluri do something similar using grid lines, but that doesn’t seem to accommodate the wide variation in structural framing strategies that can be used to rationalize a complex structure. So I came up with a…
