THOUGH THE APPROACH TO

BUILDING DESIGN HAS EVOLVED
TREMENDOUSLY, IT STILL STARTS
WITH A ROUGH PAPER SKETCH.
IMMEDIATELY AFTER THAT THE
DESIGN STARTS TRANSFORMING IN
TO A 3D MODEL. IT IS A LOT MORE
CONVENIENT AND QUICK TO
VISUALIZE NEW DESIGNS IN A 3D
ENVIRONMENT.

FOR ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN

SUPPORT SERVICE PROVIDERS LIKE
US, IT EMPOWERS US TO ENABLE
OUR CLIENTS TO SEE WHAT SPACES
WILL REALLY LOOK LIKE INSTEAD OF
INTERPRETING FROM PRINTS. ALSO
OUR CAD DESIGNERS AND BIM
MODELERS, WITH HELP OF 3D CAD
DESIGNS, DO AN OUTSTANDING JOB
OF OPTIMIZING THE STRUCTURES
AND SYSTEMS WHEN EVERYTHING IS
PRESENT IN ONE SINGLE MODEL.

And hence the question, Why 3D CAD

Models of a Building are translated into 2D
drawings, only to be built in three
dimensions?

For more than two decades now, we have been successfully

developing architectural CAD drawings, building elevation drawings,
presentation drawings, floor plans, furniture detailing as well as 2D
representations of interior planning and demarcations through our
expertise in architectural 2D drafting services. We deliver 2D
architectural CAD services, with help of AutoCAD, Revit and Autodesk
Building Design Suite to convert sketches in CAD drafts with different
formats such as DWG, DXF and DGN.

We strongly feel that the answer to why 3D CAD models are

translated into 2D drawings is that complex projects need
complex controls; including Bills of Materials for procurement,
construction sequencing, document revision control, and
dimensions. That said, we are nowhere against the evolving
technologies, nor are we failing in being equipped with all of
them. However; the importance of 2D drawings cannot be
denied. Lets understand it from our perspective.

Construction process of buildings including residential,

commercial, institutional, government and industrial facilities, or
even parking and storage spaces, cannot take a start off without
procuring right kind of materials. Our 3D model database
contains information on all structure, systems and equipments
contained in the model, and preparing a bill of material BOM; is
as simple as running a query in the database and enables the
project to springboard without creating any drawings.

This is then followed with utilizing huge monitors/screens loaded

with model-viewing software that provides real time design data
to the shop. The builders, architects, contractors and
stakeholders in the supply chain, can literally see what they are
working on, how it would appear when finished, and what several
other systems or structures are in near vicinity. 3D BIM models
are easy to interpret by almost anyone without extra efforts
required to interpret 2D drawings/drafts or prints.

Now if you hail from the building construction industry, you

could not agree more to the fact that building without
production drawings certainly makes document control
irrelevant. How would one provide dimensions and
tolerance information to the builder? This traditionally
forms a part of, or is shown in 2D production drawings with
conventions for where dimensions are placed, and assumed
tolerances for construction. How on earth will the builder
get this information if there are no 2D drawings created or
printed, just to eliminate the cost?

Conclusion
