Innovative Architectural Tools
TurboCAD’s 2D/3D architectural tools let you design floorplans, decks, kitchens, bathrooms, room additions and more. Easily create top view two-dimensional floorplans, and then use our walk-thru tools to tour your design in 3D. Add materials, lighting and shadowing effects, and then produce stunning photorealistic renderings.
Sophisticated Mechanical Tools
TurboCAD’s mechanical drafting tools let you design everything from engines and mechanical parts, to circuit boards, patent drawings and more. Create complex 3D shapes simply by extruding (pulling) them from your 2D shapes. Edit directly in 3D mode and apply colors, brush styles and lighting effects to create stunning visual presentations.
BONUS – CAD Fundamentals 2D Training for TurboCAD – A $50 Value!
It’s fun and easy to learn the TurboCAD basics with special interactive tutorials and over 200 video lessons. (This bonus training software is included on the TurboCAD Deluxe DVD and will not be available with the download option. It is also not included with upgrades.)
Key Features
Award-Winning Technology
Lightworks® Photorealistic Rendering
Powerful 3D rendering defines physically accurate materials such as glass, mirrors, and polished or reflective surfaces with ray tracing – allowing you to create photorealistic designs.
PDF Publishing
Save your drawing as PDF documents for easy sharing. Plus, export paper spaces, customize your fonts and define your paper widths and heights.
Earth-Friendly “Green” Design
TurboCAD offers a complete set of pre-drawn, eco-friendly details that you can drag and drop into your design, as well as dozens of “green” materials. Access the Green Building Design Center for more earth-friendly building and design ideas, solution and supplies. Dozens of links will help you locate energy wise and environment friendly doors, windows, natural lighting and much more.
Hundreds of Easy-to-Use Features
Setup Wizard
Breeze through questions designed to help you define your drawing’s size and orientation, units of measurement, printing scale and viewpoints
Flexible User Interface
Turn on and off only the tools you want to see as you work in a familiar, windows-like, customizable interface. Display TurboCAD’s comprehensive set of 2D/3D design tools with full explanations in the beginner mode. Switch to intermediate or expert mode to gain screen space as you become more familiar with the program.
Advanced Handle-Based Editing
Save time and draw more accurately, more quickly. TurboCAD provides handles for scaling, but also for rotating, moving and aligning objects.
Context-Sensitive Help
Get instant knowledge on tools by utilizing the built-in help feature which will take you straight to the User Guide explanation of that tool.
2D & 3D Text Editing
Create and edit text without leaving your drawing. Plus, choose from thousands of colors for text and background.
Colors, Brushes, Bitmap and Gradient Fills, and Transparency
TurboCAD allows for hatch patterns and gradients to be layered with transparency. Custom bitmaps, such as your company logo, may be used as well. This empowers you to much more clearly and precisely communicate construction or assembly details.
Table Objects
Create a table on the fly, or import a table from DWG/DXF files. Create and fill the schedule table with drawing information using the fill schedule wizard.
Architectural Tools
Hatch Patterns
Choose from over 70 hatch patterns (including colors) to help you visually identify various components of your drawing.
Edit and work in 3D without leaving Rendered Mode
Photorealistic Rendering
Realistic Lighting Effects
Hard and Soft Shadows
Realistic Materials & Textures
Hatch Patterns
Intelligent Parametric Walls
Self-Healing 2D & 3D Walls – Walls automatically join and intersect, and update automatically
Single-Click Wall Dimensions – One-step incremental and overall dimensions
Wall Openings for Doors/Windows – “Slide” doors, windows, arches or any shape to create “openings” in walls with linked 2D and 3D views for correct representation in any view
Parametric Doors & Windows
Window and Door dimensions are fully parametric and can be scaled to meet your design needs. Further customize with materials, then simply drag and drop them as objects into the self healing walls of your 3D drawing. TurboCAD will automatically generate the appropriate symbol for the 2D version of the drawing.
Fractional Dimensions
Display fractions in stacked, diagonal, or in-line layout to accommodate your personal preferences.
Point Marker Tool
Automatically number objects such as rooms, doors or windows. Great for creating legends, call outs, or simply mapping points and adding notes to your drawings.
Mechanical Tools
Multiple Drawings/Multiple Paper Space
Build multiple drawings, each with multiple paper spaces, with independent settings (grid units, etc.); then use tabs to quickly switch between paper spaces.
2D and 3D Boolean Operations
Simply transform primitive objects into sophisticated 3D models with Boolean operations like add, intersect, subtract, and slice.
Revolve
Create a 3D object by revolving a 2D object around a revolution axis.
Extrudes & Sweeps
Create complex 3D models by simply extruding (pulling) them from simple 2D shapes. Or use Sweeps to extrude complex shapes along a path that you define. Perfect for drafting irregular objects such as pipes that must be routed around other objects.
Automatic, Editable Meshes
Easily create complex meshes by entering coordinate information or importing matrix data from Excel®. Then view, edit and render the mesh directly into TurboCAD.
Snaps & Geometric Alignment Aids
Draw lines quickly and let snap tools automatically align them with the closest center point, end point, or dozens of points you choose. Geometric alignment aids improve snap indicators.
Floating and Shaped Viewports
Create multiple viewports of Model space in multiple Paper spaces. Then edit your viewports by changing their shape or the layers that they display. You can even render within a viewport.
