Extrude Lattice

Lattice, Scalar Field, Scalar Field, Scalar Field

What it does: Creates directional ribs from the beam elements of a Lattice. Tips:

The Direction input requires a field to derive the normal direction from.
Each beam’s Height is measured from the surface of the initial lattice.
The Direction, Height, and Thickness inputs are all scalar field inputs that can use the Ramp block to vary the properties of the ribs.
The outward direction of the implicit body used in the Direction input is the positive direction of the field.
Open up the block’s Properties Panel to view the beam, implicit, and thick graph properties.
- These properties are populated based on the type of Unit Cell you use. An error sign with a tooltip appears next to the property if it is empty.
