These tutorials are great for students who are trying to expand their design arsenal.
Grasshopper 3d roof edge.
In this grasshopper definition you can model a wave like ceiling pattern by hanging a series of panels from the roof.
We have vegetative roof details in pdf dwg autocad and autodesk revit rvt 2d and rfa 3d formats.
But i can tell you through my own experience that this is a bad idea.

The edge vent was moved up the roof 3 feet to bypass a wall located near the bottom of the roof.
It just needed intake airflow to feed the exhaust vents already in place for the long term life of the roof.
For designers who are exploring new shapes using generative algorithms grasshopper is a graphical algorithm editor tightly integrated with rhino s 3 d modeling tools.
For a few buildings it s okay but for the city scale working with surfaces is very slow and you ll quickly see your computer grind to a halt.
In this class you will learn how to create a parametric roof truss system using grasshopper for rhino.
Grasshopper is a bit intimidating at first but with some experience it can become one of the most useful tools.
The easiest way to turn your polylines into 3d buildings is to extrude them and then use patch to create a roof.
Download link for model and script.
Unlike rhinoscript grasshopper requires no knowledge of programming or scripting but still allows designers to build form generators from the simple to the awe inspiring.
This roof did not need replacing.
