AEC - Tip of the Day, Archicad
Most of the time you require to limit the maximum height allowed to build in the terrain, in Archicad you can use a workaround to do this:
- First, create a surface with bright colour and then use it to get a new Building material that will use this texture.
- Duplicate the existing mesh and move it vertically until the desire position (Limit of the construction)
- Change the settings of the mesh using the Building material created, don’t override the Surfaces and use the top Surface only.
- This will help you to visualize the construction limit, also you can use “Collision detection” if is necessary.
