Hi there, I need to split the room shape in simple shapes to perform some analysis and calculations. In brief if I have a corridor or a shaped room with a complex shape I need to divide it to 2 or more simple sub shapes (read trisngles or squares/rectangles). I can’t think of a possible algorithm to use and I’m asking your advice to tackle this request. I attach a sketch, a picture is worth a thousand words. [20210102_210716] I assumed the cut lines can be at angle 0°,45° or 90° but the angles might change according to room orientation in the project. Thanks for your help.

Hello @paolo.pozzoli look at this similar topic [image] Programmatically Break Down Complex Shapes into Simple Polygons Machine Learning Hello all, I want to start by saying I am not looking for you to complete this assignment for me. I have made some attempts but ultimately have failed very early on in each. I am at a loss for another try. I categorized this under Machine Learning because I feel that is what it would need but I am not sure. I work in Seattle and have been given a very particular task. The city does not trust Revit or the Architecte to provide the area for FAR (Floor to Area Ratio) diagrams. Developers need to …

Thank you @c.poupin! Very interesting! And very similar to my topic indeed. In my case I don’t need such a high output precision but I’ll give it a try and tweak the accuracy acc01 value if needed. I’ll be back in the next few days to report. Merci!
