AutoCAD Architecture 2008: Fundamentals

AutoCAD Architecture is “AutoCAD optimized for architecture.” In addition to all the standard AutoCAD tools, it offers a host of features to greatly increase the speed and efficiency of architectural drawings. The software is designed to work from first concept (conceptual design or mass model) all the way through to design development, working drawings, and facility maintenance.

To meet the needs of different students, we have divided our training materials for this application into two courses. AutoCAD Architecture 2008 Fundamentals focuses on the design development and construction documentation features of AutoCAD Architecture—the basic tools that the majority of students will need in their work. AutoCAD Architecture 2008 Advanced focuses on conceptual design in the sense of massing studies and space planning, as well as several more advanced features for greater control over the program.

AutoCAD Architecture 2008 Fundamentals can be taken independently as a separate course. The main topics covered include:
