Autocad macro

[Alas_1234]

Hi everyone,

I am working on pond project.We prepared detail part of the project with our team by using autocad.   The first parts can be done in short time by using civil 3 d.  (aligment, surface, corridor, volume calculation)                  

However it takes much time to draw detailed parts. Such as drawing of steel and its area calculation. We use major commands such as copy/paste/array/mirror ..  Its takes about 5-6 day .to complate project.  

When I searching on the web, I see autocad macro and I inspered by this video:

He give only dimension of drawing and autocad gives all drawing by using macro in minute. Maybe we spend 1 week for this parts. So, is there any macro about bridge, pond or river project. If there is, how I can access.  Also I wonder how I can prepare macro about this projects. Thanks for help.

You can prepare you own macros using one of several programming languages that are supported by AutoCAD, including AutoLISP/VisualLISP, VBA, VB.NET, C#.NET.
