Yes perfect for presentation
but not for fabrication Who would ever want to make fabrication information this way !
It's only a 'model' !
If you made it out of cardboard and balsa-wood you'd not make it exactly as it'll be made when full-size...
If I were to make fabrication info using only SUp I'd detail typical elements and intersections separately, not in the overall model - that's only there to show us what it will look like, not how to build it !
-
Of course yes
But as computer permit to make any precise structures, if it's not a painful work this can be made in one time
Who can make more can make less -
Yes looks simple for the architect or modeler but would be a hand full for the steel detailer and fabricator.

Hello! I am also working on this kind of project. The thing is its a pretty big file ones you made the space frame by the lines2tube script. But if that's only way better stick to it!
My problem is, is there a way that i can reduce the file size so its would be easier to work on the whole project? Maybe reducing the poly lines or anything?
Any help is appreciated! TIA!!

I have worked on this.
I'm to explain it in Tutorial Section

Hi Pilou. Do you know where you got this image? I'm working on a project which will use a similar construction, and would love to get some details of the Great Court!
Thanks!

It's definitely gallery stuff - and not only the desig, the modelling excellence but even the presented style!
Congrats!
