Hi Guys,
So I'm working on a project with lots and lots of bricks assembled into interesting profiles. This is an existing building. If they didn't win a brick manufacturer's design competition I'd be surprised.
I attached a wall section here along with a photo, an isometric view and a perspective view.
Questions:
1. Ideas for radial brick work
2. Ideas for the brick sill and wall below at an angle
3. Was thinking of making a wall with sweeps for the projecting brick work
5. Better ideas than an imbedded wall with a profile to get the arch modeled
Thanks!

For sloping brick sills, we use an in-place void to cut the sill area, then we add an in-place sweep to create the sill. You can also add this to the window family if you have a lot of instances.
I never like to use walls with sweeps defined in the wall type because you can't control them phisically or visually.

Array Radial for the arc, create a generic model face based family with instances parameters...

I guess the next thing might be writing an equation to calculate the number of bricks in the arch give the radius and making that part of a family.
