The extrusion creates an uneven surface, and I haven’t been able to find a solution to make it smooth or uniform.</P><P>Is there a tool or technique in Archicad that can help me extrude the helix while keeping the surface even? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><BR /><IMG src="http://community.graphisoft.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/93139i56CD40F66F402503/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;px=999" border="0" alt="2.png" title="2.png" /> Wed, 15 Oct 2025 12:18:52 GMT Edo0629 2025-10-15T12:18:52Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/How-to-Extrude-a-Helix-with-an-Even-Surface-in-Archicad/m-p/680054#M178073 <P>Hi everyone,<BR />I'm trying to extrude a helix by 5 cm in Archicad, but I'm running into an issue.

That should do the trick.</P> <P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Capture d’écran 2025-10-15 à 15.38.03.png" style="width: 400px;"><img src="https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/93164i8DE2DFF9A87D34FA/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;px=400" role="button" title="Capture d’écran 2025-10-15 à 15.38.03.png" alt="Capture d’écran 2025-10-15 à 15.38.03.png" /></span></P> <P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Capture d’écran 2025-10-15 à 15.41.52.png" style="width: 721px;"><img src="https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/93165iF235690049F929DE/image-dimensions/721x554?v=v2" width="721" height="554" role="button" title="Capture d’écran 2025-10-15 à 15.41.52.png" alt="Capture d’écran 2025-10-15 à 15.41.52.png" /></span></P> <P>Olivier</P> Wed, 15 Oct 2025 16:36:23 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/How-to-Extrude-a-Helix-with-an-Even-Surface-in-Archicad/m-p/680089#M178076 Olivier-IDAO 2025-10-15T16:36:23Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/How-to-Extrude-a-Helix-with-an-Even-Surface-in-Archicad/m-p/680104#M178077 <P>Draw a beam in the plane.&nbsp;</P> <P>Wider than high rectangular section.</P> <P>Transform into morph.<BR />Move up and down the extremities to get your favourite geometry.</P> Wed, 15 Oct 2025 14:42:19 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/How-to-Extrude-a-Helix-with-an-Even-Surface-in-Archicad/m-p/680104#M178077 alemanda 2025-10-15T14:42:19Z
