What CAD drafting services typically produce

Computer aided drafting, commonly abbreviated CAD, covers producing precise digital drawings such as floor plans, elevations, sections, and details from source material like hand sketches, field measurements, or scanned paper documents. These services are used across architecture, structural engineering, MEP design, and manufacturing.

Common project types that use these services

Architecture firms use CAD drafting for construction document sets, engineers use it for structural and mechanical layouts, and real estate professionals use it for as built and floor plan documentation. Many firms outsource routine drafting work to specialized services to free up in-house staff for higher level design work.

  • Floor plans, elevations, and section drawings
  • As built documentation of existing structures
  • Structural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing layouts
  • Conversion of hand sketches or scans into precise CAD files
