CP-System Building Design for AutoCAD 6.11

CP-System is add-on software for building design without the overhead involved in Building Information Modeling (commonly known as BIM). CP-System works with AutoCAD, AutoCAD LT (using LTX), progeCAD, BricsCAD, ZwCAD, CADopia and other IntelliCAD brands. CP-System represents a much easier, low-cost and practical approach to the needs of designers who need to work quickly but accurately.

CP-System is a simple suite of four separately priced toolboxes that turbocharge supported CAD systems into a complete building design studio. At the core of CP-System is a 2D parametric drawing editor which allows users to quickly draw electrical wiring, piping or duct elevation plans and then "insert" relevant symbols such as valves or switches from large libraries of associative drawing objects. Each library can be customized with objects from a user, or extended by downloading thousands more parts currently available from CP-System enabled industry suppliers (such as Fujitsu or Cablofil). A database is built as the drawing is created, which can be exported or printed as a Bill Of Material or specification in many common formats such as CSV, XLS, XML, RTF, HTML and PDF. CP-System objects can be edited or re-created later as required.

Each of the four separately-priced licenses activate one of the four different "design realms" offered by the CP-System framework:

HVAC - Actually this one license includes multiple libraries and functions for HVAC, piping, plumbing, ducting, hydraulic and pneumatic planning and system design.
Electrical - Includes all the layout design tools for circuit wiring and cabling, telecommunications, fire and safety, cable trays, busbars and switch boxes.
Mechanical - This license is good for mechanical part design and includes all the nuts and bolts (literally) needed to put something together, also structural tools etc.
Architectural - The least expensive license but still very useful for overall architectural design or office
