Flat roof parapet walls

NikolaiMina

Hi everyone. I'm new to CGA rules and trying to make a simple parapet wall around a roof deck but I can't do it properly. Here's what I got so far:

Lot-->

extrude (4)

comp(f) {

side: Facade | top: Roof1}

 

Roof1--> 

split(x) { ~0.5 : Block | ~0.5 : Deck}

 

 

Block-->

extrude(3)

label("Block")

 

Deck-->

offset(-0.2)

comp(f) {border: Parapet}

 

Parapet-->

extrude(1)ParapetWall

 

ParapetWall -->

case touches(intra, "Block") : 

                               NIL

                 else : Wall.

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi @NikolaiMina,

I am assuming you are referring to the parapet side being cut in diagonal on the side it touches the 'Block'

This happens because of the way trim planes are set in CE.

When you set your occlusion operation, it just don't execute the 'ParapetWall' rule. The offset operation that generated the inital shape for the parapet border isn't affected.

One alternative way to avoid  the parapet gap is to create a 'border' on three side only using the split operation.

 

version "2023.0"

Lot-->
	extrude (4)
	comp(f) {side: Facade. | top: Roof1}
 
Roof1--> 
	split(x) { ~0.5 : Block | ~0.5 : Deck}

Block-->
	extrude(3)
 
Deck-->
	split(x){ ~1: split(y){0.2: Parapet | ~1: DeckFloor. | 0.2: Parapet} | 0.2: Parapet }
 
Parapet-->
	extrude(1)

 

 

Hope this is what you were referring to.
