In the origin, cadwork was developed for the watch industry, but it is now mainly used by the building and construction market Civil Engineering Carpentry Topographic Road building Easyroad Cadwork EasyRoad Architecture Armed concrete Glue laminated timber Stairs The different modules in the suite allow to draw, to design CAD or to manufacture Computer aided manufacturing CAM . cadwork files have the following extensions .2d, .2dc 2 dimensions drawing .3d, .3dc 3 dimensions design .2dr road projects .2dv parametric elements . These files can be viewed with the free software. The free version allows to Zooming user interface Zoom , to PAN and to print, but it doesn t allow to modify the drawings. Technical characteristics Between 1982 and 1996, cadwork was compiled only on workstations , such as those from Apollo Computer , Digital Equipment Corporation VAX and DEC Alpha Alpha platforms and HP Hewlett Packard . The program was written in Fortran and compiled in 32 bits or 64 bits. In 1993, the core rewritten in C programming language C . Since 1996, release 7 worked also on Microsoft Windows NT 3.5.

unreferenced date April 2008 Digital Modeling and Fabrication is a process that joins architecture with the Construction construction industry through the use of 3D modeling computer software software and CNC machines. These tools allow designers to produce digital materiality, which is something greater than an image on screen, and actually tests the accuracy of the software and computer lines. Computer milling and fabrication integrate the computer assisted designs with that of the construction industry. In this process, the sequence of operations becomes the critical characteristic in procedure. Architects can propose complex surfaces, where the properties of materials should push the design. Modeling Some of the modeling software programs include Blender software , Form Z , Rhinoceros 3D , Cadwork , 3D Studio Max 3D studio max and SketchUp . Machines for Fabrication CNC router CNC stands for computer numerical control. Through a computer controller, G codes are read which represent specific CNC functions in alphanumeric format. The g codes drive a machine tool , a powered Machine mechanical device typically used to fabricate components. CNC machines are classified according to the number of axes that they possess. CNC machines are specifically successful in milling materials such as plywood, foam board , and steel at a fast speed. CNC machine beds are typically large enough to allow 4 x 8 123 cm x 246 cm sheets of 19mm thick plywood to be cut. Laser Cutter The laser cutter is a machine that uses a laser to cut materials such as chip board, matte board, thin sheets of wood, and plexy up to 3 8 1 cm thickness. AutoCAD AutoCad is used in the production of lines on a grid, which would be sent to the laser cutter as a .dwg file. Lines can either cut through the material or score it depending on the color of the line drawn. Lines drawn in white will be cut and lines in red will score the material in the cutting bed. Objects cut out of materials can be u ... more details
