Avatech Solutions Presents Autodesk 2009 Technology for Building Design and Engineering Professionals

Avatech Solutions, Inc. announced their free 2009 Autodesk Rollout series of events for architects and building systems engineers. The new 2009 series of products from Autodesk allows architects and engineers explore ideas and experience designs before they’re real by evaluating “what if” scenarios before anything is built. Avatech Solutions’ design, mechanical, electrical and plumbing engineering experts will take attendees on a tour through the latest features that will impact the way they work, and open a world of innovation. Attendees can get answers from certified Autodesk experts and learn how to increase productivity, reduce errors, and save valuable time.

ARCHITECTURE TRACK

AutoCAD 2009

AutoCAD 2009 has a new user interface, Action Recorder and improved Layer Properties Manager. XREF clipping will also be highlighted. Subscription clients also receive the latest version of Autodesk Impression, a software tools that allows you to create compelling presentation graphics with a hand-drawn look from DWG and DWF files.

AutoCAD Architecture 2009

Draw more efficiently with tools that automate many of the most common drafting and documentation tasks. Annotate designs faster with streamlined tools that eliminate repetition. Collaborate with members of an extended project team.
