1.3 Contour Drawing B

Firstly, we calculate the volumn of the original site using the ‘Measure’ Modifier in the ‘Utilities’ tab of 3ds Max. After clicking the ‘Measure’ button, we simply selected the entire site and click ‘new floater’ tab down the bottom, and then all data was show in the modifier.

1.4 Volumn

Calculation

Secondly, we followed the same step to calculate the volumn of the site after being modified (i.e. ‘Probolean’). Then we know the extra amount of soil that need to be bring to site for construction purpose by the difference of volumns, which is 2980.5 m³.

Why we choose exploration no.3?

We consider no.3 as the most satisfying landform exploration, which shares more similarities with our original site and our design schemes compared to other explorations.

In our original design scheme, we located the house in a cliff to overlook and embrace the river scene to a large extent. However, in the final render output after digital modelling, we did not really get a view from the house which celebrates this idea of ‘overlooking’ river.

In this case, we select no.3 as we are able to achieve the initial inspiration of our design.
