TimberModel

class compas_timber.model.TimberModel

Bases: Model

Represents a timber model containing different elements such as walls, beams and joints.

The timber model allows expressing the hierarchy and interactions between the different elements it contains.

Attributes:

beamsGenerator[Beam]

A Generator object of all beams assigned to this model.

platesGenerator[Plate]

A Generator object of all plates assigned to this model.

jointsGenerator[Joint]

A Generator object of all joints assigned to this model.

wallsGenerator[Wall]

A Generator object of all walls assigned to this model.

center_of_massPoint

The calculated center of mass of the model.

topologieslist(dict)

A list of JointTopology for model. dict is: {“detected_topo”: detected_topo, “beam_a_key”: beam_a_key, “beam_b_key”:beam_b_key} See JointTopology.

volumefloat

The calculated total volume of the model.
