Use of 3D CAD Models in Architectural and Construction Industry
Use of 3-dimensional (3D) Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software has become essential in most design professions, including engineering, architecture, construction and branches that deal with the built world – past, present or future. CAD 3D modeling is also frequently used in medicine, science and technology to explain and visualize physical phenomena. 3D models depict the geometry and various aspects of physical objects and are dynamically visualized with computer graphics. 3D CAD models are very complex and the storage formats are usually proprietary to a specific software product.
In architecture domain, 3D CAD software is popularly becoming the design tool of choice. There are many software vendors catering to the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry, especially AutoCAD, Revit and Microstation. 3D CAD models are increasingly used across all phases of building project life cycle management. The modern AEC industry has defined “Building Information Model” as a standard way to model building in 3D. BIM consists of 3D CAD model plus important properties of the model (e.g., attributes and materials) to facilitate better communication between various parties involved in the project and the future owners. From the 3D model many more detailed 2-dimensional (2D) drawings are produced for specific aspects of the building (floor plans, electrical, HVAC, etc).
There are also artistic renderings delivered to clients – photographs, photorealistic images and videos of the construction site – and ample email and document exchange between client, architects, contractors and other parties. While the 3D CAD models are of substantial importance, contextual files are often required to understand them correctly. For example, client presentations help clarify an architect’s design goal as implemented by a model, so researchers looking at the 3D model need the context of the presentation to make sense of it.
2D drawings generated by tools like AutoCAD present many advantages since they are industry standards (DWG, DXF formats) and can be easily converted into other standard 2D formats such as PDF or JPG. For places in which 2D CAD is the best illustration of the object, standard formats and 3D CAD model strategies can reasonably be applied.

Degree in construction engineering technology?
I work as an architectural draftsman for an architectural firm. I currently have an associated degree in drafting and design and am planning on getting a bachelors in construction engineeing technology. Would this degree be helpful in the archiectural field or should I pursue something else? (I do not have the option of getting an architecure degree)
may I suggest a job in grave yard as a real-estate excavator.
If you have been working in the field and don’t already know. it is obvious that you should be doing some thing else like digging graves or ditches. after all I am sure that you are waisting perfectly good natural resources in your current position
How does it feel to know that your only contribution to this world is waisting AIR and Global warming

In by gone days all a contractor had to do was give the customer good quality and good service and he/she would be set. Then set back and let your customers do your selling for you. They would tell a friend and then that friend would tell a friend. Your phone would be ringing off the hook. I remember as an Architectural designer some days I would have up to four people wanting to schedule appointments for designs. Those days are long gone! But Fear Not! Click Here For Help
