I downloaded the spaceframe from your github.
For me as a (german) structural engineer it would be of interest,
which loadings your engineers must use for a location in africa (especially wind loading).
Excellent video. regards thomas

Haha that's great, you can make some tangible recommendation. The model I drew is just a basic one, as you can see the connection are not yet realistic. Although not an ingineer, I would like to have your opinion on such types of structure.
A while ago I came about this pdf but it looks 'chinese' to me as i don't undertand how to use the information and not even sure if it relates well.

regis, thanks for the manual.
wind-loading phillipines: 280 km/h ==> in germany NO building would survive... :shock:
about statics: when I have a little bit more time, I can load your spaceframe into my
3d-framework-program. Lets see, how the structure reacts.. :D regards thomas

@all

Now, I have added support to rebar add-on when structure element is derived from any object (like wire, sketch etc.). Comments are welcome. :)

+1.

I have updated the getParametersOfFace(structure, facename, sketch = True) function. Now it takes a face name of the structure as an argument instead of face object and it also returns parameters of a face when structure element is derived from any object (like a sketch, wire etc).

Beam is from part-design-WB. I play with the custom-spacing.

"Cannot identified shape or from which base object structural element is derived"
