Product Key Customer Benefits
Digital Project Designer delivers the technologies necessary for architects and engineers to conduct their professional work in a fully integrated 3D environment. Designer provides high performance geometric modeling coupled with parametric knowledge modeling tools to deliver high quality professional work with confidence.
Designer is a base product which includes over two hundred commands and functions. The package supports high quality geometric modeling from wireframe and surface modeling through feature-based solid geometry. KnowledgeWare parametric modeling capabilities are integral to all Digital Project technologies. Geometric modeling operations can be defined schematically by specifying relationship geometries and then extended with additional parametric geometry. Geometric dimensions can be refined without redrawing.
Designer includes Digital Project's attribute modeling capabilities, allowing building professionals to overlay project geometry with a rich set of construction information. Project data can be integrated with construction scheduling information through a direct interface with Microsoft Project. Designer comes with Uniformat and CSI attribute schema to support cost estimating and specification referencing, as well as attributes for quality control and utilities for user extensions of attribute schema.
Designer includes libraries of architectural components and utilities for extracting information to architectural schedules. Designer allows data interoperability with other commercial applications through the support of several industry standard translation formats.
