Checkers, software that analyze CAD data formats, are often employed before and after data translation. The checkers can check the organization and quality of the data against internal company standards and international or industry standards. These checkers can be built into specific CAD packages or work on a number of CAD file formats.
The first attempts to separate the CAAD from generic CAD were made in the 1970s. [6] The practical commercial tools for architecture design and building information modeling appeared a decade later, in the 1980s. [7] Due to availability of the tools, computerized design in architecture became a distinct field within the architecture. [6]
DWG (from drawing) is a proprietary [3] binary file format used for storing two- and three- dimensional design data and metadata.It is the native format for several CAD packages including DraftSight, AutoCAD, ZWCAD, IntelliCAD (and its variants), Caddie and Open Design Alliance compliant applications.
The table below provides an overview of notable computer-aided design (CAD) software. It does not judge power, ease of use, or other user-experience aspects. The table does not include software that is still in development (beta software).
In addition to the system as listed above, there is a corresponding series of paper sizes used for architectural purposes defined in the same standard, ANSI/ASME Y14.1, which is usually abbreviated "Arch". This series also shares the property that bisecting each size produces two of the size below, with alternating aspect ratios.
