View Full Version : Two questions about curved curtain walls
1. Is it possible to have a custom curved curtain panel automatically detect the radius of the curtain wall or curtain system? Now I need to input the radius manually (see pdf attachment )
2. Is it possible to make a mullion family to curve in plan? (see screenshot)

Yes and yes. You mean like this?

Could you post families ?

Its cheating but it works.
Nice workaround.
I have been trying to do the same with curtain systems, but I can't swap the panel with a wall type. Also you are pretty restricted to a wall type shape as mullions. The only way I think i can get a curved mullion is to embed a mullion profile in a panel family. And for the real organic curtain walls I would have to model the whole thing in Rhino and import as an in place family.

I would just build the mullions into the curtain panel family. give the panel a radius parameter,
