Idea:
Add join/material piority’s directly to material identity data instead of using this on component level.
So instead of setting join orders via this menu, set it up via material settings:
So replacing or overwriting this one’s Structure/Function priority: Structure [1], Substrate [2], Thermal/Air Layer [3], Finish 1 [4]
Finish 1 [5])
So instead of having the posibilty to set it to 5 preset “strenghts/prioritys” it would be so usefull having the posibility to set this as a material setting from 0 to 999.
It would open up so many options to better standardize the connections in everybody’s firm template’s.
Saving a lot of work and possibly making modeling workflows a lot smoother.
Why:
This makes accurate 3D modeling way easier and more customizable for the firm that is using it.
You can set up your template to your local building code needs etc, in the standard cases you would only need to model and join and voilla a correct detail (mostly) is generated.
Less need for cut profile, filled regions, ...
I also believe this fit’s pretty well with Autodesk developing real 3D layered wall’s
