Computer-Aided Design or CAD Drafting has been a real success by becoming the
primary source of communication purpose in the AEC (Architects, Engineers and,
Contractors) industry.
Before CAD’s arrival, the only source for the draftsman was drawing and paper for
sketches.

However, now traditional manual Drafting has been shifted to CAD Design and CAD
Drafting.
So, Let’s dive right into what advantages of CAD Drafting helps smarter over
Manual Drafting.
One of the benefits of CAD drafting is that it does not need to be filed to store in a
folder like manual Drafting.
CAD can be easily saved on a drafting computer server and can be accessed from
anywhere with an internet connection. The chance of losing the documents is more
in a manual draft.
Without the use of paper, CAD Drawings saved electronically, and it is also an
environment-friendly method.
Although one can make a 3D model manually, it does not look like a 3D model
created by in the AutoCAD. AutoCAD breathes life into a 3D model and helps the
visualization process.
In a manual draft, you need to erase and re-extract it to make any changes to your
drawing. CAD simplifies the research process with its various editing tools.
With a few clicks of a mouse, you can undo, redo or delete your actions. You do not
need to draw an object again at any time because you can modify existing objects
by mirroring, hauling, rotating, scaling, etc.
It accelerates the task of preparing a bill, reports, scaling, etc. of content — tedious
work of drawing each line on paper done in a few mouse clicks.
As CAD software removes repeated iterations, large amounts of time are saved.
In Manual Drafting, all of the dragged objects must have the correct size and
configuration.
Each object needs to be manually tested and constrained because there may be a
slight error in the whole project.
With CAD, there are many technologies available to get specific parameters that
lead to improved accuracy in this project.
Due to the numerous advantages in the review of CAD Drafting in terms of speed,
accuracy, data storage, manual manufacturing, it has become standard for AEC
industries.
