Hello everyone,
I have this geometry and my main goal is to maximize terrace surface area while minimizing total shadow onto this terraces, with galapagos, but first I need the measurements. Total surface area is easy, got it. I need help with the total occlusion measurment.
I am aware of add-ons such as Ladybug and Geco, I have only worked with Ladybug once.
There are also custom scripts like this one:
https://medium.com/generative-design/solar-analysis-in-grasshopper-5dae76c9b6cb.Although all these are useful for defining constraints like sun position, time, etc, I haven’t found a way to measure what I want to measure. Searched the forums and most discussions are about a building’s shadow onto the floor, not onto itself.
If i can measure it once for any given sun position, the rest is simply an average of multiple hours and sun positions. Thanks in advance for any help.
