- [Instructor] So I have the exercise file open already. So in the process of implementing our generated design model. We set up our site, our sine wave surface, we've used the two to create a roof. Calculated fitness values and optimized using Galapagos. Now we're going to set out a layout for our structure. The idea is that we're going to create some open spaces at the ground floor, that the structure works round. In order to do this we're going to use machine learning and clustering. As inputs for this structural clustering we're going to get the mesh and the offset surface from our solution for our roof. So I'll go to Params Mesh and Surface. And I'm pulling these out because this will end up becoming another cluster, for the structural logic. So I want to use the mesh faces and group those together to create the logic for this structure layout. So for each mesh face I'm going to get circumscribed circle around the face, using face circles. There's a lot of different way to do…
