On the other hand, If you hide the wall layers that are intersecting with the columns (from the wall styles dialog), you will see a big gain of the performance speed of the model.
The resulting wall in that example is a very complex poly-surface, about nearly 20 MB. The “problem” is that when columns are inside walls, VisualARQ will take care that no geometry will share space. So VisualARQ columns are very efficient, more than Rhino extrusions. If you explode the VisualARQ columns using the Rhino “Explode” command (not using Grasshopper), the file will contain 213 extrusions, and the file size becomes 3.6 MB. In the same GH, if you bake the columns exploded (using the VisualARQ Explode component), the 3dm file will contain 312 poly-surfaces, and the file size will become 12.5 MB. If you delete the walls, the file size with the 312 columns becomes 2.8 MB. This is the reason why baking the columns takes too long to compute: VisualARQ is doing a 312 boolean subtraction to the wall poly-surface. VisualARQ performs subtraction booleans between walls and columns in order to avoid two objects to share the same space and therefore calculate properly the volumes. Every production run has its own requirements. Whether cutting single boards or packages of boards, timber products or even plastics, all of this is possible with the automatic optimizing cross-cut saws with positioning pushers. Hi analyzing your GH definition and the process to bake these columns, we have realized that what makes the file size increase is actually the wall, not the columns. The ProfiCut range can automate and optimize your cross-cutting, giving you high performance and production quality.
#Joist cutting optimizer windows
openings and windows are not cutting through, as it is not a proper wall one can forget wall functions like extending or joining.the wall bleeds through in hidden view mode.
#Joist cutting optimizer how to
How to use the Kurraglen Industries cutting optimiser. The calculator can be used for any linear material whether it be steel, metal, wood (timber), plastics, etc.
#Joist cutting optimizer free
The test file attached grew 25M by generating the columns for a single long wall, despite there are only 2 block definitions created. Our free online cutlist optimizer can be used to work out the best way to cut your lengths of material to get the most efficient cuts from the material and save wastage.
However, there are heaps of problems I ran into, that may make it absolutely useless: I want to make it so that the script can run on any wall with any number of layers. The script is WIP, I didn’t manage to make it general to any number of layers yet and it only supports generating to a single wall at the moment due to my lack of understanding of trees in GH. So my script, similarly to yours explodes an existing wall and generates columns layer by layer based on the user parameters defined for the given layer. Shame GH wall styles are not yet supported by VA 2.7.
