Big News! I have moved to a new company

After 20 years with JAMA - LA I decided to move on and join a firm in Texas.

AG&E. They do amazing work. I will lead their Advanced Design Technology initiatives remotely.

Read all about it here

I will still be involved in helping the AEC community as always, including presenting at conferences,

and publishing etc.

Thank you for all the support over the years and here is to another 20 more!

Save the Date! 

My AU2021 class titled 

"10 Yrs Worth of Dynamo and Revit Volume 3" 

is on Oct 7th 10AM US Pacific Time. 

I will have Live Demos, Q&A and crazy Dynamo, Revit, and RhinoInsideRevit content.

I will be covering 30 examples taken from the last 10 years I have been teaching at Autodesk University. 

Head Over to the class page Sign up for AU2021 (Its free this year!) and check it out.....add a comment, ask a question, and Recommend it to #AEC, Then attend the class, I will See you Then!

GET CENTER POINT OF MANY POINTS USING DYNAMO OR GRASSHOPPER

If you ever wanted to get the center point from many points using Dynamo or Grasshopper then see image below....and yes there are many ways to do this one task including using custom nodes.

If you like this format there are 100's of more examples similar to this one in my new book

"Dynamo and Grasshopper Cheat Sheet Reference Manual" More information here 

ORIENT REVIT STRUCTURAL FRAMING PERP TO CURVE SURFACE

 Have you ever wanted to orient structural framing perpendicular to a curve roof in Revit? You could change the "cross sectional rotation parameter" on each beam or you could use Grasshopper inside Revit that uses the new Rhino.Inside.Revit Technology. See image below and good luck.

If this example looks familiar... it is! I showed how to do this method using Adaptive Components in the past see this previous post. https://therevitcomplex.blogspot.com/2017/11/orient-beams-perp-to-surface-using.html and my lastest book "Dynamo and Grasshopper Cheat Sheet Reference Manual shows how to do this in Grasshopper. ALSO.....What about Beams that are segmented and on a planar curve in 3D space? No Problem see the image below to solve that problem as well. 

The page numbers are where these concepts are located in the book. Want to learn more? Check out the book here. https://www.aeccheatsheets.com/dynamo-and-grasshopper-reference-ma

My Autodesk University (AU2020) Class is Online for Viewing, Live Q&A is also there

 Hello everyone. 

I taught a class last week at #AU2020 titled

"8 Yrs’ Worth of Dynamo and Revit Classes from 1 Speaker in 60 Min Volume 2" 

In this class I went over all 25 of my conference classes that I taught since 2012. 

The session as well as my Live Q&A session are all available on demand right now.

Go check it out. If you have any questions just type them in the comments section and I will answer them.

I also included in the class a way to download datasets and handouts from all my previous 25 classes!

Thank you and go check out the class and many others that are available on-demand.
