I want to create a building really similar to that of the cocoon office in zurich. The spiral ramps are continous and getting bigger all the way to the top. I have no idea on how to draw this on archicad. The curved ramp in the object folder does not allow me to achieve this effect.
Another question would also be on how to achieve the outher form which follows the spiral of the ramp. How do i cut the curved wall to be in line with the spiral ramp?? Your help will be greatly appreciated!! Please Help !! Thanks...

But if the ramp loops under the portion above (like a standard spring and as I assume it does in the original image) then you will need to break it down into 360° rotation segments.
I would imagine you would need to break the walls in the original image into 360° segments to trim as well or even less to make them more manageable.
It looks like LinRong is in for a lot of experimentation.

For the walls you can put another mesh, define a cusom panel (windows), rotate and adjust in the section...
