Floor Timber Planks Pattern Hatch

[nicolas]

Hi to all,

 

Need urgently a floor timber planks pattern hatch. The timber need to be 1800 x 150 mm.

 

Your help would be much helpful.

 

Have written something like:

 

*WP150x1800,

0, 0, 0, 0, 1800

90, 0, 0, 0, 150

 

But the planks are put one after another without any staggering which is what is needed most.

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

How much does it need to stagger, with a hatch you cannot make it random

Hi,

 

If the first line start with a full rectangle 1800x150, the second can start with a 1/2 rectangle. Same principle with the laying of CMU or Bricks.

 

Thanks.

Something like this gives a half length stagger.

 

*WP150x1800
0,0,0,0,150
90,0,0,150,900,150,-150

Here's a few variations the last one jumps half each time.

*Boards_1, Wide boards
0, 0,0, 0,150
90, 0,0,300,900,150,-450
90, 500,150,300,900,150,-450

*Boards_2, Wide boards
0, 0,0, 0,150
90, 0,0,600,1800,150,-450
90, 100,150,600,1800,150,-450
90, 600,300,600,1800,150,-450
90, 250,450,600,1800,150,-450

*Boards_3, Wide boards
0, 0,0, 0,150
90, 0,0, 150,450, 150,-450

*Boards_4, Wide boards
0, 0,0, 0,150
90, 0,0, 150,900, 150,-150

Quick change I read your first post as 800 instead of 1800

[nicolas]

It works perfect. Thanks you very much.

Can this be achieved with 3 or 4 staggered planks?

I am trying to put this pattern in Revit but getting the error that the "line space value is too high, reduce the line space value"  ?
