AutoCAD LT vs. Autodesk Advance Steel

It is suitable for use with students who are familiar with using a computer. Unfortunately, we still have many people without access and basic knowledge, such as a simple application of the oficce package.

• Drafting and layouts generation
• 2D Modeling and measurements
• Layers and property features
• Useful commands like mirror, copy, move, array, offset and rotate etc.
• File recovery feature

• Incremental savings (if possible) because autosave on big drawings took time to get done because it saves the whole file
• Some custom macros that I made should be made standard (like infinite horizontal or vertical lines)

For being a light version of the program it has a ton of functionality and features. I found the system fairly easy to learn how to use once I took an intro course on it. Overall i think the usability is great and it was easy to jump right in and get working in the program

Although AutoCAD LT is the lite software when compared to standard AutoCAD, it does all the work when it comes to 2D modeling and issuing design drawings. When comparing it to BricsCAD, AutoCAD LT shines, as it works without freezing and is usually more responsive than BricsCAD, it just outclasses it.

• We have been able to looks at CAD files that ordinarily we would not have been able to open. Giving us more control over our projects
• We are now able to create very accurate draft designs that save us and our engineering/architecture team valuable time in drafting.
• We can create our own plan sheets for when it is something that does not require a stamp. This saves us time and money.
