Features

From design to calculation and visualization through generation of deliverables, DDScad supports your practice with intelligent solutions for greater efficiency. Design Easy cable planning, comprehensive distribution board management, and efficient lighting calculation, are just some of the powerful capabilities DDScad has to offer. Integrated product information makes your design more than just graphical symbols and lines. International standards are considered from sketch to output. Calculate Electrical design is based on intelligent objects like switches and sockets with stored information. This data also serves as the starting point for automatic calculations. Design and calculation are integrated – change the model and the calculation will be updated automatically and vice versa. This saves time and prevents errors. Visualize Create high-level presentations and get customer buy-in faster, thanks to DDScad Electrical’s powerful visualization capabilities. A connection to BIMx offers the ability to view and share 3D models, plans, and project information on a variety of different devices and operating systems. Document From reports, circuit diagrams, and installation plans to parts lists: Create accurate documentation quickly and easily with DDScad Electrical. Print the results, create a 3D visualization, or export the bill of quantities directly to a cost estimating solution.
