Construction Drawings Software – Plan7Architect

Construction drawings are the detailed plans used during building projects. They show dimensions, materials, sections, and every detail a contractor needs to bring a design to life. Instead of sketching by hand or relying on general CAD programs, you can use construction drawings software to create precise, professional results. Plan7Architect is a dedicated solution that allows you to create construction drawings in both 2D and 3D, even if you are not an architect.

Why Use Plan7Architect for Construction Drawings?

Plan7Architect gives you the tools to create complete construction drawings without requiring years of CAD training. Compared to drawing by hand or working with complex professional software, it offers an easier workflow while still producing professional results. Whether you are planning a new build, an extension, or a renovation, the software is designed to make construction planning accessible and accurate.

Key Features of Plan7Architect for Construction Drawings

2D Drafting Tools

With Plan7Architect you can quickly set up walls, doors, windows, roofs, and staircases in a 2D view. Dimensions are generated automatically, so every wall and structural element is scaled correctly. You can work in both metric (meters, centimeters) and imperial (feet, inches) units, depending on your preference or the standards used in your country.

3D Visualization

The software allows you to switch instantly between 2D drawings and 3D models. This feature helps you see how your technical plans look in reality. You can walk through your design in 3D and identify issues before construction begins. It also makes it easier to communicate with builders or clients, since not everyone can read technical 2D plans with ease.

Compatibility with Industry Standards

Plan7Architect supports importing and exporting DWG and DXF files. This makes it possible to collaborate with architects and engineers who work with AutoCAD or similar software. You can start a project in Plan7Architect, exchange files, and keep working without data loss.

Detail Planning Tools

The software offers everything you need to plan structural details. You can add beams, columns, and foundations, and create professional floor plans, sections, and elevations. Roof design tools allow you to model even complex roof structures in 2D and 3D.
