What is AutoCAD?

 

AutoCAD is the original Computer Aided Design (CAD) software, used by architects, designers and engineers of all types.

 

What can I do with AutoCAD?

 

You can draft 2D drawings that include accurate dimensions, hatches and notations. You can generate schedules for doors and windows. You can create reusable components such as doors, windows, bathroom fittings and kitchen cabinets, so that you don't have to draw them ever again. You can create full 3D models of buildings, products or landscapes that can be rendered either in AutoCAD or in 3ds Max.

 

Why should I learn AutoCAD?

 

Because AutoCAD is the most popular CAD software in the world. Because you can create both 2D and 3D drawings and models in AutoCAD. Because you can even create renderings in AutoCAD. Because AutoCAD is capable of complex modelling using mesh models, solid models and NURBS objects.
