About the course
This course demonstrates the creation of a parametric Pratt truss model using the Rhino Interface 2026 environment. Users learn how to define truss geometry, generate structural members, assign analytical properties, and prepare the model for structural analysis. The workflow focuses on efficient modelling techniques, geometry control, and data exchange between Rhino and structural analysis components. The tutorial also introduces parameter-driven adjustments for rapid design iterations and improved modelling productivity. By the end of the course, participants can create and modify truss systems efficiently while maintaining a structured analytical workflow suitable for engineering applications and conceptual structural design studies.
What you'll learn
- Create parametric truss geometry in Rhino
