SYNOPSIS
Computer-Aided Design (CAD) Software is commonly used and it is a necessity in today’s Consultants offices
often linking the common drawings to all related consultants in the same project. From the late 80’s till
today, many Consultants continue to relate CAD software to drafting functions more than what it can
specifically function for each specialized field of applications for better, faster, accurate, easier generation
and management of the project drawings.
In this talk, the speaker shall provide an overview of Graebert’s innovative approach to combine CAD
solutions for desktop, mobile and cloud into a single and all-inclusive ecosystem and subscription.
The ARES®”Trinity” of CAD software for DWG-editing includes ARES Commander™ for the Windows®,
macOS® and Linux® computers, ARES Touch for Android® and iOS® smartphone and tablets and ARES Kudo™,
a full browser-based solution for DWG-editing in the Cloud.
He shall share the experience of the agility of ARES Commander to crate, modify and organize DWG drawings
in 2D and 3D for ease of managing projects by leveraging the drafting and design features with a familiar look
& feel that is intuitive for any experienced CAD user that you’ve come to expect for your DWG files.
You can crate and modify you DWG drawings on tablets and smartphones with a complete set of 2d drafting
annotation commands at hand. It’s a full-featured Mobile CAD App that fits into your pocket and the perfect
companion to quickly review a drawing shared in the could or received by email while on the go to access,
share and modify your CAD files online, anywhere, anytime.
Graebert’s Map solutions includes a hybrid solution being together the intelligence of GIS contents and a fullfeatured
DWG-based CAD system.
The SiteMaster™ suite of mobile building CAD applications enables the capture of measurements directly &
digitally in real time, creating instant CAD drawings on-site in .DWG, .DXF and/or .JFC format. It is designed
to seamlessly work in perfect conjunction with modern Bluetooth-enabled devices ensuring a paperless,
quick and accurate surveying process. The CAD plans are created on the fly while you measure and can thus
be evaluated on-site to check any inconsistencies before returning to the office. With this easy-to-use
building surveying solution, professional can measure and get calculations on-site with a near finished 2D
drawing.
The speaker shall share his experience and elaborate the importance of Guidelines and Standards in CAD
Drawings for Design & Management of Engineering Projects which are controlled and organized through the
intuition of the software solutions for prospective post applications and operations.
