Abstract

Auto CAD has revolutionized modern infrastructure design and development by providing precise drafting, 3D modeling, and simulation capabilities. As urbanization and technological advancements accelerate, the demand for efficient and accurate design tools has grown. Auto CAD, with its extensive library of tools, layers, and parametric modeling features, enhances productivity, reduces errors, and facilitates collaboration among engineers, architects, and planners. This paper explores the role of Auto CAD in various infrastructure projects, including road networks, bridges, high-rise buildings, and drainage systems. It discusses how Auto CAD’s inseparability with Building Information Modeling (BIM) and other software platforms improves work flow efficiency. Additionally, the integration of Geographic Information System (GIS) data allows for better site analysis and environmental impact assessments. The study highlights the advantages of Auto CAD, such as cost-effectiveness, automation of repetitive tasks, and enhanced visualization of design concepts. Challenges, including the learning curve and software cost, are also examined, along with potential future advancements like AI-driven automation and cloud-based collaborative design. By using case studies of Auto CAD-based infrastructure projects, this paper aims to demonstrate its significance in today's civil engineering practice. The study highlights that Auto CAD remains a critical tool for infrastructure development, making the accuracy, sustainability, and viability of global projects possible.
