Curved glass block wall

[Marky]

Does anybody know how to build this type of wall?
Neither Cadimage Wall Coverings nor ArchiWall is able to do it.

Hi Marky,
if you check in the windows library, you should find in the "fixed windows" folder a "ww glass block wall" window. Its settings are a bit quirky but after a few tries you should get the settings you need, have a look at the image attached

Hi Til,

Thanks, I know that but I need to insert there some doors and that's the problem.

Marky,
make a new material, set the right texture (glass blocks), and assign it to the wall.

Hi Andro,

That's it!
I was thinking about it.
Have to check if it has a thickness and what happens to the other side but looks very promising.

Anyway, that's the solution!

Thanks.

And some textures for the glass blocks for download:

Wow, this forum is the source of abundance! At least for ArchiCAD users.

Thanks a lot Andro!

How to you distribute the glass brick along the wall, bcz only allows to me to make windows with a certain length.

You could try doing this as a Curtain Wall. Hidden frames for the mortar joints, panels for the glass blocks and a curved wall as mortar (SEO out the glass blocks Curtain Wall).

I read about drawing like a curtain wall. But apparently in the second post on this thread it can be possible to draw like window brick glass. Can anyone confirm this and if so how can I make a curved window.
