Blog | The benefits of Autodesk Build for AutoCAD users


13 april 2023

Are you a satisfied user of AutoCAD and would like to go deeper? Or would you like to experience even more quality and comfort? With Autodesk Build and its integration with AutoCAD, this is possible! This cleverly connects design and construction teams and creates a more productive dynamic.

Autodesk AutoCAD

Are you an architect, engineer or part of a design team and always notice problems around implementing changes from contractors? The solution to such problems is closer than you think with the integration of AutoCAD with Autodesk Build. By linking drawings to Autodesk Build, you streamline communication, eliminate errors and create a more productive dynamic between design and construction teams.

Autodesk Build

This digital collaboration platform makes it easier to share information. Gone are the highlighted PDFs and handwritten notes (which not everyone can read)! By using Autodesk Build, there is no noise and communication flows perfectly.
With the 'push through to Autodesk Docs' feature, you can share construction drawings directly as PDF files from AutoCAD 2022 to Autodesk Build. This immediately provides three key benefits:

  1. Communicating changes is much faster and you communicate more clearly.
  2. There is one source that everyone in the project can use. The source is also easy to find.
  3. Design and construction teams can discuss changes in real time and thus collaborate better.

Autodesk Build hosts digital versions of a drawing on a real-time platform accessible from any device. Changes to drawings can be marked up directly and accurately. This allows you to tag reviewers and inform them of their tasks. After uploading a new design, everyone can immediately work in the correct version. As a result, it hardly ever happens anymore that teams accidentally work with outdated plans. Needless to say, this benefits efficiency.

Autodesk Construction Cloud 

By using Autodesk Construction Cloud, project teams can benefit from enhanced document management functionalities, faster collaboration and improved productivity throughout the project. From preparation to facilities management. From A to Z.
