Curved beam in two directions

[kevms]

Hello All

I have a new project and there is a curved canopy beam at the main entrance that will be a feature of the building. the beam will be curved in two directions or planes.

I am seeking some advice on how to start and model this member as this will be my first time modelling something like this.

Can someone help guide me in the right direction.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

There is a way to include a two way curved beam but requires some work. I would suggest you watch this video.

It's excellent for modeling complex geometry.
If this is not what you need, please provide more information so that we may assist you better.
