Modeling Approach:
I decided for this assignment that I wanted to create covered walking path. Once I decided on the top of structure that I wanted to make, I thought about some of the features that I wanted it to have. I decided that I wanted to lay columns out along the path to give the structure an enclosed, yet open feel. To go along with this, I made the floor and roof a function of a sinusoidal wave, to add some nonlinearity to the structure because there are already many walking paths that are just flat and I wanted to make something unique.
- A brief description of your design outlining the parameters that can be used to flex and dynamically change your structure
Parameters:
For this structure, there are a number of parameters that can be dynamically altered. The length, width, and height of the walking path can all be altered using a sliding bar in Dynamo. Along with this parameters, both the number of waves and the amplitude of the waves in the floor and roof can be altered. The number of columns and panels are linked together, but they can also be changed (increased or decreased). All of these features allow for this structure to be designed for any location that would want or need a walking path.
