Create curve surface from brep

Hi all,

I am trying to generate a curved surface to represent floor plates but getting into issues. It works fine for non-curved objects but cannot form a boundary surface from curved objects.

In addition, I am trying to create floor plates from the building object but not the footprint. Appreciate if there is any idea!!

Hi @hoganchan113,

Turns out you don’t even need to do this, but in general the Boundary (Boundary Surface) component should work fine for this.

This can be done a couple of ways!

Since, you have both a building footprint base curve and a brep representing the building volume, you can either copy this base curve to appropriate z-values and extrude it to get the three-dimensional floor plates, or contour the building envelope to get the floor curves first and then extrude them to a desired floor slab height.

This should work with every building envelope in your scene.
