Wyatt Springer - ARCH 655 Project 1 - Parametric Stadium Design

  ARCH 655 - Project 1 Project Brief Architect:                   HOK Group, Inc. Project Building:      Mercedes-Benz  Atlanta Falcons  Stadium Project Location:     Atlanta, Georgia Project Year:             2017 Project Use:              Football/Soccer Stadium The Mercedes-Benz Stadium is home to many events, however, primarily home to the Atlanta Falcons of the NFL and Atlanta United FC of the MLS. This is a radially segmented stadium with a kinetic roof structure that opens much like the aperture of a camera.  The aim of the recreation of this project is to not only recreate the kinetic roof, but to control the radial segments and various facets of the exterior. Project Modeling Step 1: Designate Construction Circles Step 2: Rotate and Divide Circle Step 3: Extrapolate 1st Two Division Points Step 4: Project Key Points for Use in Creating a Planar Surface Step 5: Create Planar Curves Step 6: Create Surfaces from Boundaries Step 7: Find Center of Circle Step 8: Extrapolate Center
