CAD drafting for architectural documentation

Develop plans, elevations and details with a DWG-based drafting workflow. Evaluate GstarCAD using a drawing set from your architectural or building-design practice.

Keep your drawing set clear and coordinated

Plans and elevations

Develop 2D drawing information for layouts, elevations and sections using your project conventions.

Detail documentation

Prepare junctions, dimensions and notes that communicate design intent to the wider project team.

Design revisions

Update drawing information as the design develops and review consistency across the affected sheets.

Evaluate your practice’s everyday workflow

1. Select a drawing set

Choose a typical project with your usual sheet setup and consultant drawing references.

2. Make a design change

Revise a plan and corresponding detail, checking text, dimensions and presentation.

3. Check the deliverables

Review DWG exchange and printed sheets against the outputs your practice needs.

Compare the options before you commit

Explore current licence options in the store and use the price comparison calculator to assess indicative costs. Check the assumptions and included entitlements for your chosen option.

Common questions

Is this a BIM authoring solution?

This page focuses on CAD drafting. If your project needs model-based coordination, schedules or a specific BIM deliverable, assess a dedicated BIM product and its exchange requirements separately.

Can I use existing DWG drawings?

GstarCAD supports DWG files. Test your own drawings and required outputs during the trial, including any specialist content or dependencies.

Which licence should I choose?

Select the operating system, edition and licence arrangement that match your requirements. Check the current store details before purchasing.
