That is something you would need to do in Sketchup or Rhino. Why not just place 4' sections and then rotate each one to match the curve? You could try 2' sections if you want a better arch, but in construction that is typically how its done anyways. Bending pre-fab lattice would end up breaking apart.
Not that this is the question, but that builder needs to look at the time/cost of bending those beams. The design, though it can be drawn, is highly "improbable". I did an old town arch in Anacortes, Wa which initially the City Council wanted glu-lam beams arched - and we ended up as I suggested from the start in using steal webbed members. I would be interested to know what you guys considered for actually building that. Thanks!X5
