Using Computer Aided Design For Architectural Landscape Plans

CAD stands for Computer Aided Design

CAD stands for Computer Aided Design. Many of us have little knowledge about this technology and few people are using it for better handling of building & construction projects. Many times landscape owners do their own design work especially for residential sales. What if you get a feedback from your residential customer that they want the area re-landscaped and modified to suit their specific needs? The customer follows this up with very less information about the project or landscape. You also know that you are competing with many other contractors and not only will your quote determine if you get the job, but your design will most likely be the crucial factor.

This kind of sales pitch is radically different from doing a take-off. A good amount of time and brain storming is required in the design and layout of the project. Right set of plans must be provided for better visualization. With fierce competition, there is a fair chance that you will repeat this often on many contracts for which you may not win.

But, there is a one stop solution called CAD (Computer Aided Design). With computer aided design you can get this all at your fingertips - a complete library of landscape drawings and standard structural symbols. You can make introductory layouts to suit most residential landscapes and also pre-formed landscape designs of various types. These landscape templates can be easily modified and customized at will. Your design and estimation time would be reduced to almost half. Especially, if you attach your templates together with pre-formed material list and rate cards.

Such savings in time and cost will not do you any good, unless you can initially pay for basic CAD technologies. Fortunately in the computer and internet arena things change very rapidly. The advancement in technology is blooming at a dizzy rate and hence the prices. Use of CAD technology and tools in construction business, if used properly, can improve productivity, efficiency and competitiveness. Add to that the skilled CAD technicians and you have a combination that is hard to defeat.
