Designers areadopting new workflows to meet increasingly compressed project schedules andshrinking budgets without sacrificing the creative process. One of the moststraightforward ways to make a change is through incorporating 3D modeling — facilitatinga streamlined design process while allowing designers to focus on expressingtheir creative visions rather than solely producing documentation thanks toworkflows that utilize intelligent, parametric objects. This presentation willexplore how to design 3D models and extract 2D documentation efficiently. Attendeeswill also examine the similarities and the differences between a traditional 2Ddesign workflow and a modern 3D Modeling workflow, highlighting how the latterbenefits project delivery and uncovering next steps for those wishing to begintransitioning from 2D to 3D.
Learning Objectives:
Define the scope, strengths, and basic principles of 3D modeling.
Compare and contrast 2D drafting and 3D modeling workflows.
Discuss various tools and techniques used in developing 3D models, as well as how to derive 2D drawings from 3D models.
Recognize the benefits of implementing a 3D modeling workflow.
