Civil Engineering is one of the broadest and oldest of the engineering disciplines, extending across many technical specialties. Civil Engineers plan, design, and supervise the construction of facilities essential to modern life like space satellites and launching facilities, offshore structures, bridges, buildings, tunnels, highways, transit systems, dams, airports, harbors, water supply system and wastewater treatment plants. A civil engineer is responsible for planning and designing a project, constructing the project to the required scale, and maintenance of the project. A civil engineer requires not only a high standard of engineering knowledge but also supervisory and administrative skills.
Architectural engineering is a relatively new licensed profession, emerging in the 20th century as a result of the rapid technology advancement of the Industrial Revolution. Architectural engineers are the engineers that specialize in making buildings. This is a particularly important profession today, since our world is immersed in two major technological revolutions, (1) that of rapidly advancing computer-technology, and (2) the parallel revolution arising from the need to create a sustainable planet. Architectural engineers are at the forefront of both historical opportunities.
AutoCAD For Civil & Architecture
- AutoCAD® is computer-aided design (CAD) software that architects, engineers and construction professionals rely on to create precise 2D and 3D drawings.
- Draft and edit 2D geometry and 3D models with solids, surfaces and mesh objects.
- Annotate drawings with text, dimensions, leaders and tables.
- Customize with add-on apps and APIs
3DS Max
- 3DS Max has powerful rendering and 3D modelling tools for creating professional-quality 3D animations, models and virtual reality visualizations. An efficient and flexible toolset to help you to create better 3D content in less time.
- Use 3ds Max® toolsets to shape and define detailed environments, objects and characters. Model any person, place or thing.
- Use keyframe and procedural animation tools. View and edit animation trajectories directly in the viewport
Revit
Use Revit® software to produce consistent, coordinated and complete model-based building designs and documentation.
- Automatically update floor plans, levels, sections and 3D views.
- Use 3D visualizations to see a building before it's built.
- Revit includes tools for architectural design, MEP and structural design, detailing and engineering and construction professionals
- Contributors across all disciplines use work-sharing to share and save work to the same project.
