Version 2.01

Scadd Draft© is a total drafting package designed by structural engineers and CADD technicians. Our goal is to make working with AutoCAD as simple as possible. The less time that is spent on setup, layers, textstyles, dimstyles and linetypes, the more time can be devoted to thinking about your design. The main component that manages all these functions is the Scadd Control Panel. From here you can customize your company's or clients' drafting standards or just use Scadd's factory settings to start and customize it as you see fit. Scadd Draft was designed with intelligence so that as you draft, Scadd will automatically adjust all these setting for you. We hope that you explore Scadd Draft. Our experience has been that once you start using Scadd Draft, you will never want to draft or design without it again.

 

Key features of Scadd Draft v2.01...  include the following:

  • Scadd Control Panel:

The Scadd Control Panel manages all your drafting standards including Dimstyles, Textstyles, Leaders, Layers , Linetypes and annotation. They are all managed and controlled as you draft. Set up multiple drafting standards for your Company and Clients in Scadd Draft's Control Panel.

  • Scadd Shape Libraries:

Quick and Easy access to library of shapes including AISC steel shapes, concrete, timber as well as fasteners. whether drawing a beam, column or joist, drafting could not be any easier. Scadd Draft allows you to easily choose the right shape without a lot of sub-menus to step through. Also, you can store your favorite shapes for immediate access.

  • Scale Fences:

Scale fences allow you to draw multiple scale plans and details.  Scadd Draft will dynamically change all drawing settings as you draw within Scadd's Scale Fences. In model space, you can draw multiple scales without even changing a text height, dimstyle or linetype scale! You'll never have to think about these things again.

  • Level Manager:

Scadd Draft's Level manager allows 3D Drafting capability using to draw your floor plans in 3D and easily plot each level in Paper Space. 

  • Footing Scheduler:

Using Scadd Level Manager and the Footing Scheduler, you can insert spread footings and let Scadd Draft automatically insert footings with footing type and elevation labeled. In addition, it will create and maintain a footing schedule. If you change level elevations, size reinforcement or footing types, the Footing Schedule automatically updates your footings with the correct size, elevation and type.

  • Reinforcement:
    Draw concrete reinforcement profiles, sections, ties, hooks, hairpins using the concrete tools.

And much more...

 

SAMPLE DETAILS

 

Multiple Scale Details Drawn in Model Space

Below are two details drawn in model space.  The detail to the left is drawn at 3/4"=1'-0" and the detail to the right is drawn at 1/2"=1'-0".  By using Scadd Draft Scale Fences (drawn around each detail) the user can draw all the leaders, dimensions, text, annotation, weld symbols, section marks without changing a dimstyle, textsyle or scaling any of the annotation.  As you draw within each scale fence, Scadd Draft will automatically adjust all these parameters on the fly.

Note: These details where drawn without creating one layer.  By using the Scadd Draft menus and buttons, all of the layers where automatically created as needed.  All of the layers, linetypes, textstyles, dimstyles are managed by Scadd's Control Panel.

Plotting Multiple Scale Details in Paperspace

Below are the same two details drawn above as shown in paperspace.  Notice that all of the text, dimensions, annotation etc. are the same size.  Another feature of Scadd Draft are its tools to quickly create viewports and automatically scale the detail in model space to the appropriate scale in paperspace with out having to input an 1/dimscaleXP zoom factor.

Note:  Both the viewports and scale fences are automatically created on non-plotting layers.
