Tutorial : Felix Candela

I just tried to use Millipede to optimize the parametric shell and used concrete as the material (thickness 20 cm) and with a 35 m span . I also only used point supports when the shell hits the ground which is obviously 16 points

The number on the right is Maximum deflection and on the left is the shell’s weight
