What it does
Every drawing is drawn from the model at the scale of its view: walls cut and hatched, openings with their swings, rooms with their names and areas. Dimension strings are laid by one engine from the view's scale, and a hand dimension is a string of the same engine.
Sheets are composed from the views with a title block. Sheet names, statuses and revisions follow ISO 19650-2, the title block ISO 7200, room and door numbers ISO 4157-2 and layer names ISO 13567-2.
What you get
- Plans, reflected ceiling plans, sections and elevations at a scale from the scale table
- Automatic dimension strings, room tags, door and window tags, and keys
- Schedules of doors, windows, rooms and quantities read from the model
- Drafting views and details, and a DXF or DWG brought in as a drafting view
- PDF sheet sets and DXF out
Where it stops
A drawing is as good as the model behind it: what is not modelled is not drawn. Calq checks its drawings against the model, not against a local authority's submission rules, so check those before you issue.
