AutoCAD is a design platform that supports 2D drafting, annotation, and drawing tools, along with 3D modeling and visualization technologies. Thanks to native mobile apps for iOS and Android, it also offers users the flexibility to view, create, edit, and share drawings on the go using any smartphone or tablet. It enables users to manage text settings, smart dimensioning and leaders, as well as tables, layouts, fields, and more.
AutoCAD‘s 3D modeling and visualization tools allow users to handle solid, surface, and mesh modeling, 3D navigation and visual styles, as well as photorealistic renderings, 3D scans, point clouds, and more. Collaboration features like PDF/DGN import/export, 3D model import, geographic location information, and online maps enable data sharing and reuse, as well as adding location information to drawings.
AUTOCAD – TUTORIAL
AUTOCAD – FEATURES
- Design and annotate 2D geometry and 3D models with solids, surfaces, and mesh objects: Automate drafting tasks to place objects with AI, compare drawings, create schedules, publish layouts, and more
- Over 8,800 intelligent architectural components, including multilevel blocks, supporting various layer standards. If none of the existing layer standards meet project needs, you can customize an existing one to create a new standard
- Automatic object generation: Save time and boost productivity with automatic generation of commonly used architectural objects like floor plans, elevations, sections, and ceiling grids
- Walls, doors, and windows: Elements that mimic real-world behavior and construction, enabling faster placement in documents and created drawings
- Drawing version control: Extract and store files to manage version control, prevent unauthorized changes, and ensure drawing integrity. Easily restore previous drawing versions with comment history and add storage time to drawing names
- Layer standards support: The toolset creates multiple layers based on current standards using predefined layer standards and corresponding key layer styles, automatically generating needed layers when adding objects to drawings
- Display system: With the display system, you only need to draw an architectural object once. Its appearance then automatically changes based on different drawing requirements, view directions, and detail levels
- Room and zone object design: Enhanced design options. Organize relationships with rooms and use zones to structure rooms into various groups based on different criteria
- Detail component management: The Detail Component Manager dialog box lets you navigate between different detail component databases. The hierarchical tree structure and filtering functionality make it easy to locate desired components
- Architectural renovation: Visualize existing, demolished, and new construction in a single drawing. This enables faster renovation design and execution while avoiding common errors when modifying multiple drawings
Conclusion
AutoCAD is a 3D drawing software that, through a simple design feed, enables users to provide team updates with notes, photos, and feedback on project progress.
