Modular Moveable Wall Systems

Anonymous — Wed, 24 May 2023 10:01:18 GMT

I need ideas. I am trying to model a modular demountable partition system. We need to have the system work in rendering, interior elevation and in section.

Should I use Window builder add on? Objects? Parametric Objects (way beyond my abilities) Complex walls? or is there an add on for building demountable walls?

Ideally there would be an add on made by the partition supplier...I can only dream.

Without seeing what type of demountable partition system you are using, my Suggestion is use the Complex Profiles tool combined with Niche window object . Very powerful combination to make complex walls.

I have been trying to use the complex profiles tool however it does not provide the vertical elements I need. ( I have tried adding a column profile but then I have to manipulate and modify them extensively). Complex walls also don't allow me the flexibility to change panel colours from panel module to panel module.

I should also try using the niche window. It might give me some more options. Thank you.

It would help to understand what you are after by a few photos

You would probably be best served with custom parametric library parts but that can be a bit of a high hurdle depending on your needs and resources.

It might be possible to do something with a combination of profiles and simple parametric parts, but we would have to see what you are after to know what to suggest.

Here is what we are after. Including the doors.

Make int walls the width and height of the panel system.
Use the storefronts to create the fixed panels, both glass and red.
Place a sliding door that sits outside of the wall. Set it's panel to match the system.
You will have to make a custom library part for the door handles as no AC ones match what you show.

Hello!
Trying to make something similar 🙂

Is possible to insert a storefront in a wall without any door?

Is possible to place two doors at the same time in a wall, sliding door and storefront door?

Sorry for asking, I am trying to understand your suggestion, Erika.
