Hello,
I’m new to rhino and I need a waffle structure but I only found tutorial for curvred surfaces not flat, and I need flat waffle floors.
can you please help me, a grasshopper file would be Amazing.
Do you have an image of what your want to model?
What have you learned from the technique in the “tutorial for curvred surfaces” video? What have you tried to do?
Is this needed for an assignment?
Make a big box that represents the whole slab
Make one smaller box (with rounded edges if desired) that represents the hollow part, place it in one corner of the slab the correct distance from the edge.
Use Array (rectangular) to multiply the boxes to the number you need with the correct spacing.
Boolean difference the small boxes from the slab.
Done.

Another way:
Layout the pattern in 2D - a large rectangle enclosing smaller rounded squares created with Array.
Extrude solid (Gumball) the whole thing to a height that is the depth of the recesses.
Add another solid box on top that represents the thickness of the slab over the recesses.
BooleanUnion, MergeAllCoplanarFaces.
Done.
