Features: This book is divided into two parts: The first part introduces 2D architectural drawing and 3D architectural modeling using AutoCAD software, as well as architectural rendering and post-processing using 3dsMAX and Photoshop software. The second part covers creating web presentations for architectural proposals using DreamWeaver software, document layout for architectural proposals using Pagemaker software, and presentation slides for architectural proposals using PowerPoint software. These CAD techniques are essential for creating presentations and documents during the bidding, reporting, and demonstration of architectural proposals. Given the wide range of CAD software covered in this book, it adopts a practical, goal-oriented approach to content selection, focusing on the functions and features relevant to professional objectives. The content meets the basic needs of CAD learning, is clearly focused, and is beneficial for beginners.
[Target Audience] This book is written as a CAD textbook for architecture students and can also serve as a reference for architects and designers learning CAD technology.
