Furniture (Tree grating)
Outdoor furniture differs from indoor objects as they are often docked to a coverage or in need of one or several foundations. Additionally, outdoor furniture has a very different set of demands to resistance and durability, as the wear and tear outdoors is much greater. These are all useful parameters in a model. Outdoor furniture objects needs sufficient documentation for future maintenance, upgrade and repairs.
In this project we have chosen the Tree grating, a typical and specific piece of outdoor furniture, for testing purposes. The object relates to the Tree when placed in a 2D plane (the tree being the host object). The insertion point for the Tree grating should be a point connecting to the Tree center point. The direction of the Tree grating should be adjustable to other objects, as the object are often placed parallel to an adjacent edge – or a paving pattern, when applicable. The elevation of the Tree grating should be governed by the host surface elevation of the object. A Tree grating should only be able to be placed in a coverage surface, similar to how a window and door only can relate to a wall in Revit/ArchiCAD/Vectorworks.
