AutoCADŽ
Architecture software, the AutoCAD for architects, enables
instantaneous productivity and smooth collaboration within a
software environment you already know. Purpose-built
architectural design and drafting tools make for efficient,
intuitive creation of construction documents. |

AutoCAD Architecture 2009 Features |
|
|
AutoCAD
Architecture helps architects create documentation, drawings
and schedules faster, while automating tedious coordination
tasks and reducing errors. |
|
|
|
|
Details
Document and annotate faster with
AutoCAD Architecture's robust library of
detail components and powerful keynoting
tools. Automate the creation of details
and maintain consistent annotation. And
when your details are complete, generate
keynote legends with just a few clicks.

|
Walls, Doors and
Windows
Take advantage of architectural objects,
such as walls, doors and windows that
behave like their real-world
counterparts. Automatically insert a
door or window into a wall with complete
placement control. Move a wall and
connected walls and spaces automatically
update. To describe more complex design
conditions, walls have improved
interaction with other objects, even
enabling you to show interference
conditions with columns across external
references (xrefs).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Scheduling
Easily customise the appearance of
out-of-the-box schedule styles to adhere
to company standards or create new
schedules from scratch, complete with
your required calculations. Since
schedules are linked directly to your
designs, you can instantly update them
to reflect any design changes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Spaces
With AutoCAD Architecture, you can
automatically tag every room and room
area in drawings. Spaces update
automatically if the bounding elements
are changed, saving you time and making
more accurate documentation. Space
definitions can include offsets from
bounding elements based on preset or
user-defined rules, enabling area
calculations based on various industry
standards, including BOMA, DIN and SIS.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Dimensioning
With AutoCAD Architecture’s AEC
Dimensions, you can dimension any wall
and all its components, according to
your own dimensioning standards,
including wall stud centerlines and
faces. Associative dimensions
automatically update as your designs
change, eliminating the need for manual
updates.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Integrated
Rendering
Bring designs to life for impressive
client presentations at any stage of the
design. Streamlined visualisation
capabilities are fully integrated into
the AutoCAD Architecture workflow. Make
your presentations stand out by visually
communicating richer design information.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Drawing Compare
(Autodesk Subscription Only)
Colour-coded displays enhance
collaboration, showing changed, added or
deleted items on a drawing. Changes to
items such as styles, fire ratings or
other nongraphic properties are also
tracked. Combined with redlining
features, such as revision clouds, the
spaces and drawing compare features help
keep communications clear across the
design team.
|
|
|
|
|
Flexibility
Because AutoCAD Architecture is built on AutoCAD
software, you can work the way you do today,
integrating more powerful architectural-specific
features at your own pace. This phased approach
helps to reduce the downtime often associated
with implementing new software. In addition,
AutoCAD Architecture software’s file-based
approach is consistent with the standards and
practices of current AutoCAD users. |
