Abstract
The technological advances of the Modern Movement in architecture introduced hyperbolic structures of great architectural simplicity and high structural complexity. The Church of the Holy Trinity in Caracas, built in 1969, is an example of these roofs. Four hyperbolic paraboloids of reinforced concrete of great geometric complexity cover the same 28 x 28 m space. The objective is to define geometrically and architecturally the church and its paraboloids through an architectural visualization methodology that uses the 3D model and orthogonal projections in the SolidWorks program. The proposed methodology is carried out in three phases: first with the bibliographic and historical review of the church archives. Secondly, with the construction of the 3D model and its orthogonal projections in the program SolidWorks. Finally, the detailed analysis of the geometrical, architectural and structural content of the church, together with the updated and extended planimetry information. Finally, the definition of a complex and non-existent analysis through architectural visualization. A methodology with SolidWorks that allows the modeling of geometrically complex curves and their planimetric extension, documentation necessary for their protection and safeguarding
