CAD Limited Products
Our portfolio of products can offer a solution for any discipline
or size of company.
For data collection from site CAD Limited offer Sitemaster 3
(LaZerCAD) a program that links a laser measuring device such
as a Disto to your cad system, also Curamess, photogrammetry
software that allows the user to produce accurate elevational cad
drawings from a photo.
For design - Allplan 2005 covers every aspect of the design
process both 2D and 3D.
For those practices on a lower budget FastCAD and EasyCAD
offer unrivalled speed, functionality and productivity for pure
2D.
And finally Squiggle turns those CAD looking drawings into
hand drawn masterpieces to complete the design process.

Sitemaster 3 (LaZerCAD)
LaZerCAD - The Missing Link - Becomes Sitemaster 3
The Old way.....
Assuming that many projects involve extensions, or modifications
to existing buildings, we start with a technician, using a laser
based measuring tools, taking measurements on site – drawing
the building by hand on a notepad. These sketches have to be developed
by the senior architect who outlines the design, and then passes
the drawings to technicians to be worked up in 2D CAD. These days
most of the clients are requesting 3D walk through’s, so the
2D CAD drawings have to be converted into a 3D model usually at
a high cost to the Practice. After showing the design to the client,
a number of alterations may have to be made, and the process goes
back into the loop. The Building has already been drawn four times
at this stage.
The New way....
Compare it to what can be achieved now – Whilst measuring
the building with the Disto, the intelligent Sitemaster
3 (LaZerCAD) software takes the laser measurements and
draws the building there and then. Drawing first the main structure
and then adding the window and door openings and other features....all
on site....any mistakes are seen on screen in the Sitemaster
3 and can be put right....you walk away with a finished
2D survey. You can finish the drawing on site and email it back
to the office or take it back to the office, load into you normal
CAD package to add the drawing sheet and final detail.
Using Allplan 2005 to we can construct the building in 3D
- That’s it ! - The building is measured and drawn. Using
a digital camera, photograph the materials on site, or use any picture
file, drag them onto the model in Allplan, export this as a VRML
file and e-mail directly back to the office from site using your
mobile phone.
From laser measuring device on site to full 3D rendered
virtual walk through, with plans and elevations - back at the office
in an hour - or so.
Sitemaster 3 (LaZerCAD).... The Missing Link will
run cross platform on the PC and Windows CE and Pocket PC (PDA's).

Curamess
Curamess - Curamess is a new program for determining dimensions
based on digital images. This program enables users to benefit from
photogrammetic procedures. The technical equipment required (PC;
digital camera, camera, scanner) does not need to be very sophisticated.
Precise results are achieved even after a brief intorduction. Curamess
analyzes coordinates, lengths, areas and transfers elevations or
floor plans directly to Allplan.

FastCAD Is Not Just a Name, It's a Fact.
FastCAD 32v7 2D/3D is a full-featured precision 2D/3D CAD program,
the newest product in Evolution Computing's line of award-winning
PC-based CAD software. FastCAD's unique design and wealth of features
shorten the learning curve and enable you to create professional
quality drawings in just a few hours.
Though FastCAD 32 is written to harness the power and flexibility
of the Windows 98/NT/2000/XP operating system, it still retains
the unique qualities that made our DOS software the choice for many
power users in the CAD community...
Speed
FastCAD 32 is the one of the fastest CAD products in the PC market
today. FastCAD's unique CAD engine is crafted in assembly language,
designed to work directly with today's powerful processors. Nothing
is more efficient and speed isn't the only payoff. FastCAD 32's
economical management of resources results in a program size that
is absurdly small by today's software standards - yet nothing is
compromised in FastCAD's design and capabilities.
Ease of Use
FastCAD has paved the way in making CAD accessible to anyone who
could use a mouse. That still hasn't changed. From the CAD Operator
or Engineer who uses FastCAD eight hours a day, every day, to the
casual user who spends only a few hours a week with it, getting
up and running and producing is seldom easier. You won't need a
six week class learning to use our program, and refreshing your
knowledge after a hiatus will take minutes, not hours or days.
Ability to Customise
What you get "out of the box" can be tailored by you
to make your work easier. You can rearrange or add items to the
pull-down menu, create new commands with FastCAD's powerful macro
language, and create new icons and add them to any toolbar. You
can easily create new hatch patterns and line types. With the XP
Toolkit (available only in C or assembly language), you can even
create new entity types and custom commands that run at the same
speed as FastCAD itself!
