Curtain Mullion Issue

I'm trying to create a kind of mullion wall that has vertical parts supported by horizontal mullions, as seen in the image attached. In that image I used two kind of wall: vertical and horizontal. But when I try to do it in a single wall type, appears a gap, and when I change de Join Condition, the gap change is place. Is there a way to creat a single wall type to work as the image?.

Hi @Anonymous

 

 

In principle there are several ways to do such a wall and you do not need two. One sufice. Easiest way I can think of is to create a custom mullion which is offset from the grid (x= depth of the mullion in the perpendicular direction). Set the new mullion in the curtain wall and use an empty panel

 

Alternatively...you could use a similar method to that of making CW louvered panels...

 

  1. Use a single grid in your curtain wall (either the Vertical OR the Horisonal) to generate mullions in one direction
  2. create a custom panel with profiles in the other perpendicular direction...ie: similar to a louvered panel

Then replace the curtain wall default panels with yours and offset it from the grid...you should have something similar to what youve got

 

See screencast below...it was prepared for an older/similar post but the principle is the same

I like RDAUO's #2 method for stuff like this.

 

One curtain wall with continuous vertical mullions only and mullions offset. Verticals behind defined as mullions. Horizontals in front defined as a panel. May have to define a vertical end mullion to fake how the horizontals join at corners depending on your design.

Hi @RDAOU


What I really need is to make the mullions cross each other, in different paralel planes, like the horizontals facing the verticals. When I tried, or the verticals or horizontals appears with gaps. My intention is to avoid these gaps and make a single curtain wall with these elements.

Other problem I had was when I create an opening, even when I'm using empty panels, the software create a panel.

If you can share the file on which you are working we might be able to understand better what u r doing and help u fix it...otherwise you could try to work with one of the above proposals

 

regarding the empty panel issue... It is a panel in principle just rendered as blank (but it is still a panel) if you want it completely empty you can for instance select the panel >> unpin it >> delete it
