I'm looking for a parametric curved rafter.
Anybody know something like the image?
It can be without 'anchor piece' but with circular section.

(As you can see in the attached image, using trussmaker i can do it but i need to do a gsm to each different rafter in the project.. i want to optimize this process with a single gsm.)

If not,
I'm looking some GDL developer who can modify the existing gsm in AC12 Library, adding first the circular section and if it would be posible a 'anchor piece'.

thanks

Hi Salmon,

Have you tried ArchiPIPE?

It also has connections for the pipes... maybe you can use it as anchors...

Hope this helps.

Take a look at OBJECTiVE.
You can freely curve beams, repeatedly and in more than one axis (see the attached image). You can also make your own profiles and cut/rotate the objects in plan and section/elevation windows.
