CLASSE CAD/Illustration Standards
CLASSE has an
EngineeringDesignDrafting/Illustration Department to assist in the production of computer aided design and technical illustrations. Autodesk Inventor Professional (3D) and
AutoCAD (2D) are the applications used by the
EngineeringDesignDrafting/Illustration Department in the design, creation, modification, analysis, or optimization of physical components; drawings produced by Autodesk Inventor Professional or
AutoCAD are stored in a Vault database. Adobe Creative Suite is used to do other graphics-related tasks.
Drafting/illustration/graphics documents that are important for CLASSE research or education must meet CLASSE standards and must be accessible to appropriate CLASSE staff for future reference/modification. The
EngineeringDesignDrafting/Illustration Department and associated infrastructure are set up to effectively attain these goals. For "one-off" projects of limited usefulness, the CLASSE IT group recommends the use of gimp on a Linux computer; gimp is also available on Windows/Mac.
For assistance, or more information on CAD, illustration or other graphics needs, see:
