![]() In this section, I’ll show you how I did these exposed rafters in this Puri – Balinese Traditional House by using complex profiles. The easiest one is by use (1) automatic roof wizard then you could use (2) the library object (object-building structures-roof construction-rafter) next you could use (3) slanted column for being rafter (4) “roof being rafter” and (5) complex profiles. In example, I have five methods of how to make rafter in ArchiCAD. I think there is a lot of method in ArchiCAD when we would create something. In this section, I will explain about the making of the exposed rafter, and the murda bajra ornament. Raab is Balinese word for roof which at the top af the building. Therefor I suggest you to make it into gdl object. Note: When you have completed any complicated model, you could turn any complicated model into gdl object and edit the appearance for the 2D symbol floor plan of the object. You could use section and elevation tool and even in the 3D window in order to adjust the “small pieces of the model” in order to get the the correct model. Do you love playing puzzle? This next step is kind like that puzzle games. Once you have done all the small portion of the modeling, the next step is to unite all the pieces. If you have done this (turn the big enemy into some small pieces) you’ll enjoy your modeling time and you will win against that big enemy for sure #LOL :-P. The main key is what will you do to separate that one big enemy (complicated model), think about it, and turn that model into some small pieces. Please choose the best method that works much better to you. In order to avoid being confuse, you could use one big image (#1) and trace it by fill tool in the floor plan copy/cut then paste it in the profile manager (do not forget to save it) one by one. By the way, because this ornament is symetry (sorry I couldn’t draw it perfectly symetry), you could trace a half of it then mirror later on), copy/cut this fill and paste it in the profile manager, adjust some parameter and save as complex profiles in the profile manager. Insert the images using figure tool and start to make the outline of that pieces in the floor plan using fill tool. Below are the ideas of what I mean and in here you also could see the outline of those model. As I have mentioned before, if I have the outline profile or a sketch image, this complicated model would be easily finished. However, if you think it as a small portion of one big model, the story will be different. For the column and the pepatraan itself, if you think it as one big model, in my opinion, it would be pretty hard to imagine of how to create it. In this section, I’ll describe the making processes of complicated column and pepatraan (the ornament above the pintu kuadi / side entrance). Since I have completed it, the complex profiles result is shown at the 6 th step of the image above. The puri foor plan is rectangular, so I do not get any trouble when finish it. The image described below is the next step of how I complete the “bebataran”. If you read more deeply in section 2 ( Pengawak as Madya Angga) of this post I hope you could get the main idea of this tips. Drawing any 2D freeform on a plain paper with your hand is more easily than working it with your mouse from scratch. any curves and circle/arc shapes in floor plan that are quite hard to make if you start it from scratch in ArchiCAD. This tips is relative for someone in somecases and very useful when you have to draw complicated shapes e.g. Here I’ll give you some tips in order to make your work run faster when you have to make any complicated complex profiles. I think this “bebataran” part is the easiest thing to do from this whole section of the post. Mostly, I used complex profiles (profile manager) in order to get the model that I expected. Those are: 1) “Nista Angga” 2) “ Madya Angga” and 3) “Utama Angga” which called “ Tri Angga” in the Philosophy Concept of Balinese Traditional Architecture 1. I hope you enjoy reading this post.īefore I dig in more deeply, I’ll try to describe the processes into three main sections as images described below. In this post, I’ll be glad to share some of the complicated details making processes to you. If you have some questions on your mind of how did I do that in ArchiCAD? I suggest you to go to my blog link in order to get the global description of this topic before you read more deeply. I had submitted these two BIMx model ( here and here) as submissions. Perhaps as you have already known, Graphisoft ArchiCAD held BIMx Competition about one month ago and will be end at the end of this month (October 2011).
