In this section, I'm trying to show the accuracy of the CAD Model compared to the reality :
1- The Foundation :
The CAD Model is not finished and I'm still missing some Covering Plates, But the Bracing is correct and the Leg Sections is exact.
On the simple Leg (one quarter), from Ground to First Floor , there is 4000 Members on the screen.
2- Brackets/Goussets in Panneau 1 to 4 :
You can see well the STAR Shape Brackets , Notice that the design is entirely parametric in CATIA , I only designed ONE Bracket and they adjust automatically to each configuration of Braces (Horizontal/Vertical/Diagonal Left/Diagonal Right)
3- An Overview :
4- Le Phare :
This is the Phare as it was originally designed, later in the 1950s it burnt and the beautiful Art Deco stype was replaced by an ugly modern design.
