Discover 37 Essential AutoCAD Tips from Hagerman & Company

What is AutoCAD Architecture?

AutoCAD Architecture is one of seven specialized toolsets included with Autodesk AutoCAD. It turns AutoCAD into an architectural drafting tool: instead of drawing lines that look like walls, you place wall, door, window, and space objects that know what they are. Plans, sections, elevations, and schedules then update from those objects.

It's built for architects, interior designers, and building designers who produce construction documents in AutoCAD's DWG format. Autodesk reports architectural drafting productivity gains of up to 61% with the toolset.

AutoCAD Architecture Features

Walls, Doors, and Windows

Place building objects that behave like real construction, so changes to a wall carry through to the openings in it.

Automatic Plans, Sections, and Elevations

Generate floor plans, elevations, sections, and ceiling grids from your model instead of drawing each one by hand.

Display System

Draw an object once; its appearance adapts automatically to plans, elevations, and different levels of detail.

Spaces and Zones

Organize spaces into zones for area reports and design schemes.

Layer Standards

Use predefined layer standards that create the right layers automatically as your add objects.

Renovation Mode

Show existing, demolished, and new construction in one drawing.

Detail Components

Browse and insert standard detail components from a filtered library.
