The process described previously provides a number of outcomes which are invaluable in the design process.
1 Rhino
Rhino facilitates the creation of visual images and walk through of the proposed structure. The image shows the rhino model rendered in 3d Studio Max.
2 FEA Analysis
FEA Analysis allows the structural elements to be sized. Colour coding facilitates the identifying of different thicknesses.
3 Rapid Prototype
Rapid Prototyping produces a scaled model of the structural form. This physical model can be considered in context in a scaled landscape.
4 Rendering
Rendered collage in landscape.
