Intersecting Shell Roofs

bennerm — Tue, 23 May 2023 12:22:01 GMT

Looking for a solution to intersect two curved roof forms, similar to a hip structure. I have created two shell forms. Now I need to "trim" off the parts of the shells that are above the desired roof form. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. There is a link to a view of the model to help illustrate the condition

I haven't tried it, but can you Split a shell along the intersection line? If not convert to Morphs and Split the morphs.

Thanks, good suggestion. The shell didn't split, but the converted morph did.

Hi, Probably is a little late, but this could help you, at least for the next time.
