This Python script automates the creation of a simplified building facade within PLAXIS 3D.
It generates structural elements like walls, windows, doors, lintels, and footings using fixed geometric parameters and a graphical input for position and orientation.

• Creates facade geometry with windows, doors, and lintels
• Automatically includes footings and wall thickness
• Simple GUI input for x/y offset and rotation angle
• Integrates with PLAXIS 3D through plxscripting.easy

• PLAXIS 3D (with Python scripting enabled)
• Python libraries:
  • plxscripting
  • easygui

1. Download the Python file from this repository.
2. Copy the script into this folder:

<PLAXIS 3D installation folder>\pytools\input

Typical installation paths include:

• C:\Program Files\Seequent\
• C:\Program Files\Bentley\Geotechnical\
• C:\Program Files\Plaxis\Plaxis 3D\ (older versions)

3. Restart PLAXIS 3D.
4. Open a project.
5. Switch to Staged Construction mode.
6. Go to:
   Expert > Python > Run script > Tools, and select the script name.
7. Enter the requested offsets and rotation when prompted.
   The tool will generate the facade and output confirmation.
