SOLAR GAIN: how to manage with oriented solarshades

My first curtain wall is a facade with a sunshading system made by wood board (with a defined orientation).

I have to manage different parameters, in different family templates. A long process with a precise order. To explain it I will describe how to prepare curtain panel and how to "bring" the orientation parameter from the first family to the final project.

Here the two components of the sunshade: a wood board and a steel support.

The main idea for this work was to create a Brise-Soleil made of wood segments that, by changing the angle of each one, could creat a smooth movement that reminds of a curve.

First part: create the wood segment.
Open a new family GENERIC MODEL FACE BASED and draw an extrusion on the view ELEVATION FRONT.

Dopo l'idea di partenza che, effettivamente era troppo modulare, ho cercato di tradurrla in chiave parametrica.
I pezzi elementari saranno assemblati (ancora devo pensare il meccanismo), una vicino all'altra seguendo una generatriz lineare o di rivoluzione.

Variazione nella longitudine dei pezzi triangolari superiori che lanciano ombra.
Variazione anche nei pezzi inferiori di supporto, in longitudine ed orientazione secondo la funzione ad albergare: supporto pubblicitario o seduta.
