3D CAD and the Professional “Wow” Factor in Graphics Presentation

3D CAD may be impressive to lay people, but interestingly the real enthusiasts are the professionals. They understand and appreciate the work, and most importantly they also appreciate the achievements. 3D CAD has become more than just a tool. It’s now a professional asset, a personalized palette for talent and ideas. 3D drafting software is a unique class of software, in which the entire design, down to individual elements is showcased.

3D CAD- Working with the new frontier

The development of this software has been entirely driven by professional demand, which has greatly expanded its reach and capabilities. It was originally a basic graphic design display function, and became a design tool in its own right almost immediately, because of the clear value of its ability to provide a full set of data regarding three dimensional designs. 3D CAD is now the leading edge of design innovation technology, used for everything from medicine to interior decoration, and it’s now indispensable in construction design.

The new frontier in design is based on an entirely new paradigm which 3D CAD has created. Design aspects now include:

  • Aesthetics
  • Components
  • Assemblies
  • Detailing
  • Engineering
  • Graphics
  • 4D simulations
  • Risk management
  • Supply chain
  • Administration
  • Project management

A typical construction project will include all of these elements within the basic information schematic created by 3D CAD. It is an unparalleled design tool, and it’s still evolving very rapidly.

Custom design- The designer’s paradise

For the top construction designers, 3D CAD has been a blessing. Custom design, complete with full presentation and reporting functions, is now standard capability for the world’s best designers. A building can be designed from the ground up, incorporating all the required features. For engineers and architects, 3D CAD is the most efficient design tool for dealing with both macro and micro design elements in a construction.

The result of this new ability has been an explosion of custom design. In commercial terms, 3D CAD could also be described as an economic phenomenon, driving innovation and the creation of new, superior design. In terms of the construction industry, 3D CAD is providing cost efficiency at the design and production end, and very high value business and contractual performance at the construction end.

Presentation- Making your graphic designs fly

The professional “Wow” factor in 3D CAD is an extraordinary phenomenon among designers. Professional designers appreciate design values, and understand the design process. The “Wow” of appreciation in construction design is being generated by the fact that 3D CAD displays the design elements and factors so well.

Construction software is now a true medium for presentation. This strong level of appreciation from within the design profession is a good indicator of how well 3D CAD presents graphically. All the best 3D CAD software is designed to produce excellent quality images, and for presentation in multiple formats.

Formats include:

  • Animation
  • Stylized plans
  • Advertising
  • Web media and digital TV
  • Prospectuses
  • Reports
  • Business analyses
  • Graphic art

3D CAD is reinventing and reshaping the oldest design sciences in the world. This is the future’s software, and the “Wows” are just starting.
