Perforated brick walls

[Anonymous]

Dears all,

I am new to Archicad (2 days only!).
I have a project where my buildings are two shells brick walls with some perforated areas and in others, there are bricks that goes as 3D effect to outside of the walls.

How can one model this specific details in Archicad? Is it done by algorithms?
Or is better to build the brick one by one?!

Any other suggestions?

Thank you!

Difficult to answer without an image of what you want to do but this guidance on using Solid Element Operations may help...

You can also use the Curtain Wall tool to model perforated brick walls. You can check the Help Center for the geometric capabilities of Curtain Walls and how you can create patterns with it.

This fantastic parametric object is no longer available. Any chance you could upload it to the forum or BIMComponents please?
