SITE FILES

Here are two files to help you position your aggregations onto the site.  One is a full scale Rhino model of the site section we will build.  Two is the topography of the site.

MACRO-AGGREGATION TOOLS

As you develop a digital model of your quarantine cell/unit you will begin to investigate methods for aggregating this unit the same way that you aggregated the line to create the unit.  Here are a pallet of tools to explore for this investigation.  Thus, you are now aggregating the cell/unit to now form a larger building complex.   


DUPLICATION – the cell remains the same during aggregation, simply multiplies.
  • Copy
  • Array [Array Srf, Array Crv, Array Polar]

 TRANSFORMATION – the cell changes / morphs during aggregation
  • Flow Along Curve
  • Flow Along Surface
  • Paneling Tools  - Custom 3D

3d: MACRO-AGGREGATION

We have examined aggregation at the micro scale in order to develop an individual Quarantine Unit. We are now moving up in scale and designing a Quarantine Facility with multiple programmatic elements.  The approach here will be the same, yet now the unit for aggregation is your Quarantine Unit.  Therefore, we will again examine digital methods for aggregation to now form a larger Quarantine Facility that continues to respond to your selected infectious agent. The program can be found HERE
