Hello,

I have a double curved mass in revit (imported from rhino) that I have applied a curtain system to.  I would like the system to be orthogonal instead of following the lines of the curved face.  I was wondering if you professionals had any advice regarding modeling a curtain wall/system for this shape.

I need the curtain system grid applied to the face, to run 90 degrees vertically and horizontally.

Also, I have created this shaped by lofting the floor plates in rhino.  I can't create this mass in revit using voids.  I could loft the shape in revit but it is difficult.

Thanks

p.s. I have attached the mass if that helps at all.

This should not be difficult to do in Revit. But, the other request of having orthogonal divisions is more difficult,

because the form is curved in plan and in elevation, therefore, the divisions will tend to accommodate to the form.

To make the pattern orthogonal, you would need to create a especial panel, that includes the vertical divisions, and then

apply that panel to a surface that is divided in 1 space in one direction, and multiple spaces in the other direction.
