Integrated CAD package (HottCAD):
•Fully-featured CAD tool for drawing and visualisation the building
•Comprehensive drawing tools make it easy and quick to create 3D building models
•Plans can be imported from DWG/DXF, PDF or image files
•Roof-drawing tools make it easy to draw complex roofs
•Combined 2D/3D interface provides immediate visual confirmation of drawing progress
•Materials and constructions catalogues link to integrated U-value calculator
•Quick and easy method of assigning constructions to building elements
•Performance and usage characteristics easily applied to rooms
•Fully configurable room labels
•Dimensioned floorplans and sections can be printed or exported as DWG/DXF.
Tabular input:
•As an alternative to drawing the building in the HottCAD tool, the relevant building geometry information can be entered manually
