Introduction to AUTOCAD
Use of Autocad in civil engineering is not just for planes or elevations or section; We also draw structural drawings in it, as well as the profiles and contours are treated in autocad, other softwares of civil engineering like Eagel Points, EPA Net also uses autocad drawings as their input for making horizontal and vertical alignments of road or a highway and similarly the water supply scheme map of a housing facility or a housing society.
Autocad was first released in 1982 by a company named AUTODESK, Inc. before this such CAD softwares were used by large workstations, for the very first time AUTODESK introduced this software for personal computer use. AutoCAD is used for 2D as well as 3D drawings ranging from electrical drawings, mechanical part drawings, architectural drawings as well as Civil engineering Drawings, structural drawings etc.
