I'd like to know if anybody is drawing their
hvac systems in 3d? I'd
like to think that's the
future and get in on the ground floor. But from
where I stand most firms are still drawing in 2D.
Is there a future in 3D hvac duct layout?
Thanks.

I'm a Mechanical engineer working for a hvac firm in
san jose. my
supervisor always wants section views
of the ceiling showing duct, pipes,
structural, etc.
to make sure we coordinate with the other team members.
this can get time consuming. oh, we are drawing from 2D
SO...you get
the picture. Is there an easier way?
My second question is...is there a market out there
for someone to do
just 3D HVAC work for engineering
firms?
Thanks

Rob,
Do you know if there are many companies
using ABS? I don't want to
plunk down
$$$$$ for a program that is hardly used.
Do you know if there is a big demand for
3D hvac work if someone could
do it fast,
using ADT & ABS? Of course this person
would know how
to read structural drawings
as well.
I'am trying to get a feel for where 3D hvac
is heading.
Thanks.

advandes
Thanks for the information. Are you saying
your company coordinates its
plumbing, HVAC,
piping, Fire Protection, Electrical, work, which
is
all in the ceiling space from 2D drawings? Don't get
me wrong, my company
does it to. It would seem to me that
ABS is not being used properly. Isn't
it time we start
drawing what goes on in the ceiling space in 3D? I am
not a saleman, I sale no products for Autodesk but I would love to get in
on the ground floor of the 3D HVAC market.
You say 90% is 2D, we do 100% 2D HVAC drawings. And I can't count the
number of time I've had sketch out what's going on in the ceiling to see if I
have room for this pipe or
that duct or a vent riser.
Is anybody using 3D HVAC?
