The widespread adoption of Computer Aided Design (CAD) in the UAE

Summary: This article discusses the use and benefits of CAD drawings in construction projects and how the UAE are embracing this advance in technology.

Computer aided design or CAD are blueprints or drawings of buildings and structures made by computer software, designed by skilled architects and designers, CAD enables them to give life to their drawings, making them easily visualised in 3D. In order to produce CAD drawings you will need software that helps in the planning of your designs, CAD drawings are widely used in the preparation of various designs of different projects to improve the proper look of the finished project.

Technological advancement creates intelligent design

Gone are the days when designs for buildings and other constructions are done with a pencil and ruler, though there was a considerable amount of skill and talent required by the architect to produce these time consuming drawings, there was scope for costly human error. Additionally the drawings were in 2D that made them more difficult for clients and project teams to visualise. With modern CAD drawings, there is a greater degree of accuracy in the drawings and they are easily rendered in 3D that makes visualising the end product much easier.

Quick and easy design modifications

Should any changes or modifications need to be made to the design of the building or structure, with CAD drawings this can be done reasonably quickly and without having to re-draw the whole project from scratch. With an experienced CAD operative, they will be fully conversant with how the software operates and be able to quickly and efficiently make any changes and modify the design to your new requirements.

Design and construction companies using CAD in the UAE

Due to the increasing prominence of the use of CAD drawings in the UAE, most design and construction companies are embracing this new technology and taking advantage of the considerable benefits it offers. 3D CAD is how most modern buildings are designed these days, with advances in technology and working practices many companies are utilising BIM alongside CAD in order to create, design, build and run beautiful, intelligently designed buildings that are fit for the future.
