3. INTRODUCTION The floor plan is most useful method of Architectural documentation. 1.It gives an overview of the project 2.hints at how the project was conceived and organized. 3.some drafting convention can be mysterious to nonprofessionals. So it is little wonder that a favorite presentation tool is the rendered plan San Juan Law Center, partially rendered in color. Image : James Goodman ArchitectureJames Goodman Architecture 1

4. Before CAD 1.rendering a plan might mean using colored Pens to shade the walls on the print of a drafted floor plan 2.Manually drawing in entourage items like furniture, trees,people, And cars 3.shading could be added to give a 3D effect 4.The finishing touch was press-on lettering to give hand-rendered plans A polished appearance Part of a rendered site plan, emphasizing plantings.

5. Development of rendering plans in dataCAD Over the last couple of decades of evolution in the use of CAD tools. architects have tried to manipulate software to mimic the qualities of hand-rendered plan presentations. 1.we can now readily produce the rendered plan as a standard part of CAD documents. 2. Tools included with dataCAD 10 and 11 provide a good example of these capabilities. The progressive of CAD 3

6. Poché and Entourage A favorite feature of pixel-based paint programs "paint bucket" fill. 1.pick a color from a palette. 2. touch your cursor in any enclosed area. 3.and in an instant that area fills with your desired color and tone. 4

7. Capability of CAD program In the past: Some of us have spent tremendous energy trying to mimic this infill shading operation in CAD with hatching or else export techniques to other programs. But now: 1.Solid/Pattern/Bitmap Fill, you can find all those same capabilities in your CAD program Shaded walls and entourage make a floor plan easier for a client to interpret.

8. Capability of CAD program We can see the capability of CAD program From 2D drawing to 3D drawing to outline render to full render 6

9. Capability of CAD program We can see the same building in a different position (black &white,through the day) We can see the capability of CAD program 7

10. Capability of CAD program We can see the capability of CAD program We can see the same render but in a different Time in the day How it change the line wok to colored picture 8

11. 2-In DataCAD, tree, car, and furniture stamps are now available with fill and shade for easy placement in a rendered plan. Capability of CAD program Furniture and fixtures inhabit a residential floor plan. Image: David Porter Associates - Architects, Inc. 9

12. 3- we can now also call upon pixel- based entourage libraries for use with rendered plans if vector-based rendered entourage is still left wanting. Capability of CAD program 10

13. The problem we may have: 1.The background must be white for the CAD drawing 2.If you use the same pixel- based tree stamp at various sizes for your site plan. you may find it distracting when they print at differing degrees of sharpness in the final presentation 11

14. Text and Color much energy was devoted to mimicking desktop publishing fonts within traditional CAD software. But now that TrueType fonts are a normal option with DataCAD we have them all at our disposal without any extra effort. An annotated, colored site plan makes siting choices easier to explain. The text: In the past The color: we can now make color-rendered plans a normal part of presentation documents. 1.The evolution of traditional CAD PROGRAMS 2.Evolution of inkjet printers 12

15. Hybrid Output there are times when exporting to another program is advantageous. With increased DWG/DXF export control, as well as the growing popularity of PDF as a transfer format. CAD users have been turning to programs such as Adobe,CorelDraw, Lightscape, Radiance, DesignWorkshop®, and Sketchup to:1.create advanced tone 2.shading effects 13

17. 1.you can choose from standard color palettes. 2. and even from customized ones such as the Benjamin Moore Color Palette. 3.It's still tricky to get the printed output to match the screen display. Color with dataCAD 15

18. DataCAD 10 is Plot Preview, which displays output in PDF format. you can get before actually printing your drawing. What you see is what you get THE BEST WAY TO HAVE WHAT WE WANT Saving a rendered plan as a PDF file through Plot Preview It is the best way to ensure that it will come out looking the same to your client as it does on your screen 16

19. 1.The users of DataCAD and other updated traditional CAD applications finally have all the tools we need to create a fully rendered plan as a CAD document. 2-These tools may take a while to get used to. 3-the investment in time will be well worth the effort and will give our presentation plans more "soul." finally 17
