How has Computer Aided Drawing (CAD) revolutionized the engineering industry?

CAD, Computer Aided Design has caused a technical revolution in the engineering industry. CAD services can be classified into broad categories such as architectural services, structural services, MEP, and mechanical services. CAD for engineers and architects today is like Oxygen for the living. CAD services are a boon for all companies around the world who want to execute CAD projects with minimal cost and fast delivery capability. With the constantly growing demands in the construction industry and CAD services have risen to eminence all over the world. This technology has greatly contributed in the development of the construction industry, building and infrastructure development, green building concept along with other engineering domains such as machine design, aeronautical foils, transformer design, GIS, pressure vessels etc

Today, the engineering industry uses CAD services to ensure lowest cost, best quality, fast turnaround time, and excellent project efficiency. CAD is no longer limited to AutoCAD. There has also been a great evolution in CAD software. CAD professionals around the world use software that is helpful in using the latest software like AutoCAD, Revit, 3D Studio Max, Pro-E, Solid Works, Inventor, MicroStation, etc. to execute design, drawing and modeling projects. With the help of such software, the entire project execution cycle has come to a new stage thanks to CAD services. Now it is possible to visualize a complete building and its details even before it is finished. This is possible with the help of “Virtual Building Modelling”, also known as Building Information Modeling in the engineering industry. 3D rendering allows any building or product to be given a photorealistic appearance prior to actual construction or manufacturing of a product. This development has also caused an increase in companies providing engineering and CAD services. With the transformation of manually created plans to digitized CAD drawings, many opportunities have been opened up for architects, engineers and draftsmen.

CAD services guarantee absolute digitization from hand drawings to computerized drawings through scanned PDF files, hand drawn sketches or old hand drawings. Companies are using different approaches and techniques to get the most out of project execution. As mentioned above, CAD Services are no longer limited to a particular domain or segment. The service matrices are covered under the same umbrella. In addition to project execution, computerized CAD drawings or images are easier to maintain, save, or send to clients. There is no risk of the images or drawings being damaged over time. Bugs can be easily fixed without taking a lot of time and can help quick response. In software like Revit, a change made to one part of the model is reflected in the entire model reducing manual intervention. This also makes it easy to define and extract individual sheets or different parts of the drawings and every detail.

These are one of the main reasons why, all over the world, major construction houses or infrastructure companies are eminently outsourcing CAD services. This process over a period helps companies gain advantages over their competitors who do not outsource their requirements. CAD technology has evolved into a different era in a short period of time and is constantly evolving to better shape the engineering industry. CAD Services now help CAD companies and professionals to manage their Design, Drafting or Modeling projects more efficiently. Companies that offer CAD services and companies that are constantly updating their technical skills will always be in an advantageous position compared to companies that still rely on traditional project delivery methods.
