How do I close a gap?

[Anonymous]

I would like to know how to close this gap. I would want to use a curtain wall and just close it, but I cannot figure out, how to make the curtain wall go along that shape.

I apologise for this stupid question. I am a beginner and self-taught at this point...

Thank you.

Hello,

Did you try to use :
- connection between wall and roof (curtain wall are wall and shell could be considered like roof)
- SEO (Solid Element Operation)

Like this :

Hey,

thanks for replying! I used the shell tool and applied it around the slab. So the shell tool works as a roof here. Next, I wanted to close the hole by using the wall or curtain wall tool, but I do not understand how to make these tools work as if the wall is following along that shape created by the shell tool.

I want the wall to go around like so:

Hello,

Connect your curtain wall and your shell roof by this way (like a wall and a roof)

Hi Elion,

I would do this:
1. Place a Section / Elevation marker in front of the whole you wish to close (be parallel)
2. Go to the newly created Section / Elevation
3. Select the Curtain Wall Tool
4. On the Info Box (https://helpcenter.graphisoft.com/user-guide/89374/)
5. Select "Boundary" option for Curtain Wall input method (https://helpcenter.graphisoft.com/user-guide/88660/)
6. Draw the outline or use the Magic Wand (https://helpcenter.graphisoft.com/user-guide/76364/) and create the Curtain Wall

Kind regards,

Hi Christophe,

your method worked perfectly with the wall tool. I could not apply a curtain wall around the roof, though.

Hi Noémi,

I could add a curtain wall using your method. Christophe's method worked like magic with the wall tool, though. I wonder why it did not work with the curtain wall tool.

Anyways, THANKS A LOT to both of you.
