Beehive Geometry

Good Day,

Dyn-ers, i want to create a beehive geometry and input a 6 points adaptive symmetry side polygon into my mesh. Right now, i am trying to figure a simple and effective way of creating the bee-hive like geometry. Anyone had experience to do so in Dynamo?

Hi,

I recommend you check out some of the existing topics as a starting point:

Not a purely Dynamo solution, but it would be much simpler to Generic Adaptive Family with a hexagon patterned surface. You can still use dynamo to control the placement points, but you’ll avoid having to worry about coding out the pattern logic and it’ll give you more flexibility. From there just get the geometry of your adaptive family and work with in dynamo.

Here is a an example pergola we made using this process.
