CAD is using by the architects since its inception for preparing digital design, drawing and plan for their project in an efficient manner.
The building information modeling technology assists the MEP engineers to accomplish their all types of MEP system design related tasks in an efficient manner.
As BIM offers lots of advantages to the users, hence its usage has been significantly increased in the architectural, engineering and construction industry in recent years.
Building information modeling (BIM) can be defined as a tool or technology that allows all the project team members to share their information with each other without any hassle.
The architectural CAD drafting process helps to create accurate 2D drawing for the building architecture in the digital environment in an efficient manner.
BIM enables the professionals to develop flawless building design and analyze as well as optimize the sustainability of the building design in an efficient manner.
Construction drawing of a building project consists of all inclusive information regarding the project. This drawing includes floor plan, sections, elevation drawings, shop drawing, etc. in a precise manner.
In a construction project, the CAD drafting process is mainly carried out for developing digital drawing, plan and 3D model for the proposed building in an accurate manner.
The computer-aided-design technology provides a range of opportunities to the architects, engineers and other AEC professionals that helps them to develop precise scaled digital drawings for their project in an efficient manner.
In the BIM platform, the clash detectors can easily view as well as analyze any 3D coordination model and identify clashes among the elements of the architectural, structural and MEP engineering disciplines in an efficient manner.
The scan to BIM process is executed for developing 3D model in a digital environment from the point cloud. Millions of points together from the point cloud. The points are basically generated when the existing building is scanned by using laser. Scan to BIM is basically an approach of retrieving conceptual design of an existing building which does not have any available information regarding its drawing.
Computer-aided-design, whose short form is CAD, is a technology which is used for developing digital design of any type of mechanical, architectural, structural, civil, construction, etc. project.
