Coool … very good technique Bin and simple 👍🏿 I ve experienced before that the repeat does not work properly and did not know what to do … show number, flip direction is a good tool to check , thanks 🙏🏿 * But this truss can be achieved by making a surface form divide face and curtain panel based? 🏢 * Also in model in place by drawing the entire truss then extrude it ? (May be a lot of work) * I think you can also do it with structural truss … I saw it before but I don’t know much about structures, but it is about to open a truss family and try to pick lines of top & bottom members then add some bracing so the family much your shape 🏗 * May be also you can do it roof by extrusion??

Adaptive families are good enough for schematic, extrusion can be useful if you have more time. I love modelling using structural columns and framings, but I found it a bit hard sometimes.

Can we use rectangular or L shape parametric profiles instead of the circular profile?

[@BINHE615]

Yes, you can draw any shape you like. Also, I did a new video with slightly different approach. You can use structural framing from Autodesk content library.

Hi Sir! congratulations for your work! I had an issue: when i want to place a tickness parameter for the elements done with metric generic model adaptive, it doesn't work just fine, because tickness doesn't change along the whole element, but only in the middle.

[@BINHE615]

My guess is that you created this form using a profile and a path, so when you change the profile, it only affect the form at the location where that profile is. If this is the case, you just need another profile. Please post image in the shared document so I know exactly what your issue is. Thanks.
