Create a single surface out of multiple surfaces

Hi guys,

my friend and I have a problem in grasshopper. I have attached multiple screenshots from the gh code as well as pictures of the model. we already had a really good gh code which worked for constructing a similar output, but we couldn´t further use that gh code bc the output of that was a mesh, and for adding the depending supports we needed a surface. so that is why we rebuilt our surface a different way, which also worked very well but still we cannot seem to make one single surface out of our single surfaces into one surface. we want and need a single surface so that we can make one big mesh out of it and show how it would get constructed in the end with a timber constrution similar to the macallan distellery.

we would be so happy if anyone could help us.

kind regards!

Here’s a quick fix for your surface, I would take some time to clean up your input surfaces so they align with each other better. A thing to keep in mind for surfaces: they’re all basically rectangles. If they’re not a rectangle, they are either a skewed rectangle or they are “trimmed” from a rectangle.

Not sure why you need to merge the surfaces into one:

Just pull the vertices of a plane mesh to the surfaces with Point Deform

N.B.: the U Count coefficient of the Mesh Surface is the sum of U divisions, while the
V Count coefficient is the GCF of the V divisions. I don’t know how to calculate the GCF of integers in Grasshopper. It could probably be easily done with a coding component.

Thanks a lot for ur answer, it was a great help!!

thanks for the kind reply!
