Generating Office Tower with Podium
Automate the generation of office tower with podium based on the following rules
The podium shape should follow the plot boundary shape
The office tower will be a rectangular box sitting on top of the podium
Tower Core Width Range: 12-15. Core Length shall follow the tower length.
Tower Floor Depth (Core to Facade) range: 10-13,
The Final Plot Ratio = Cacultared Plot Ratio x 85%
Ground floor should have a recessed covered walkway
Output
The tower and podium geometry is export into separate geometries baked in Rhino with respective attributes (Elefront Plugin) for a later stage GFA calculation
Observations:
Check if the parcel boundary is within plot size requirements. If it is out of bounds, the output will flag that the land parcel area exceeds/is under the size limit
Calculate building size, site coverage, plot ratio, total GFA for office and podium, nº of floors for office tower.
The values-input are autoreferenced from an excel spreadsheet
I have considered asigning one of the parcel boundary segments as front manually assigning a point in rhino.
