MP Ingenieros Selected ZWCAD+ to Enhance Construction Project Outcomes

ZWCAD Design announced that MP Ingenieros Ltda, a professional construction consulting company in Chile, has selected ZWCAD+ to enhance construction project outcomes. With the ability to handle large files flexibly, the fast running speed and easy revision functions, MP Ingenieros Ltda is able to review design projects in a more efficient and time-saving way.

Founded in 2002, MP Ingenieros has taken part in several important projects for companies in the areas of industry and real estate. It provides consulting services for structural calculation, residential, commercial, industrial and institutional building projects. It also develops software for specific applications and provides project inspection and administration services.

The Need

Construction designs are usually larger in file size because of their greater complexity. Working with large drawings for a long time will not only burden the operating system, but cause problems such as slower response and longer lag time. Therefore, the flexibility in handling large drawings is a basic requirement of MP Ingenieros. Furthermore, since revision is one of the most frequently used features in construction projects, simplifying the revision process will have a direct impact on the overall efficiency. To further boost productivity, MP Ingenieros is also working with some VBA applications to address a variety of specific needs. As a result, the performance of revision features and APIs are crucial.

The Solution

Procad Ltda, the authorized distributor of ZWCAD+ in Chile, introduced ZWCAD+ to MP Ingenieros after learning about its needs in stability and fluency with large drawings. ZWCAD+ enables users to open and edit any large drawings with memory usage reduced by 50%. With the new memory optimization technology, designers can work more fluently with fast commands. The revision process is also simple in ZWCAD+. Using the associative dimension, designers only need to revise one geometric object, and the rest will change accordingly to keep the design accurate. It minimizes the need for costly and time-consuming revision work. For specific project needs, ZWCAD+ provides a solid API environment allowing users to easily port their existing VBA applications.

The Price

ZWCAD+ helps MP Ingenieros drive up profits and reduce expenses. It provides the same robust features as mainstream CAD software, but at a fraction of the cost, giving users the opportunity to complete construction projects in a more cost-effective way.

“ZWCAD+ has a faster running speed and a wealth of new tools to serve our diverse needs,” said Mr. Carlos Molina Caceres, Founder of MP Ingenieros Ltda. “With its reliable functions and competitive price, ZWCAD+ helps us complete construction projects with less financial or time investment.”
