Structural setout

Separate intersection points, >2’ apart

The regular approach for structural setout - parallel offset of glass faces to the back – would not yield a useful structural node

Structural setout N1 N2

N6

N3

N0 N5 N4

For this reason a different approach was used in which 1) an average vector around each node is computed from the normal vector of each face incident on that node

B6

B5

B4 B3

And 2) a bisector for each adjacent face pair is computed
