I'm not sure what the point is of this post. The title sort of sums it up. These thoughts came to mind so I wrote them down.
A common misconception is that AutoCAD from Autodesk is the world’s leading 2D design software. I’m not saying it’s not, because it is. AutoCAD is the world standard CAD program for 2D design. The misconception is that it doesn’t do 3D. But in fact, it does 3D quite well. True, in the past, AutoCAD’s 3D abilities are lacking when compared to design programs that specialized in 3D design. Well of course it did. AutoCAD was meant from the beginning to be a 2D drafting tool. But now it is a full 3D design tool. Not only is it a design tool, but it has features that automate your work. I could go on and on about why AutoCAD is great, but I won’t. Maybe that’s a series of posts for later. But suffice it to say that the tools in AutoCAD allow you to design in 3D and to automate your drawings. Make a change to your model and your drawing sheets are updated. Yes it does that! No AutoCAD is not BIM, or CIM, or IM, but it is and can be a part of those processes. Programs like Revit are not BIM. BIM is not a program or software package. It is a process of modeling information in an automated process. Revit can and should be a large part of that process for architects, structural engineers, facilities managers and contractors. But Revit is not BIM. Revit can do things that AutoCAD can’t, obviously, but AutoCAD can do many more things that Revit can’t. Revit is “type cast” into specific roles. It is a specialist program. That is why it is far superior as a building design tool when compared to, well, anything really. But can it create machined parts? No. Can it create textile designs? No. AutoCAD can. AutoCAD’s strength lies in its diversity. Revit’s strength lies in it purposefulness.

101 Things I Learned in Architecture School By Matthew Frederick
Publisher: MIT Press 2007 | 128 Pages | ISBN: 0262062666 | PDF | 31 MB
This book presents concise lessons in design, drawing, the creative process, and presentation, from the basics of "How to Draw a Line" to the complexities of color theory.This is a book that students of architecture will want to keep in the studio and in their backpacks. It is also a book they may want to keep out of view of their professors, for it expresses in clear and simple language things that tend to be murky and abstruse in the classroom. These 101 concise lessons in design, drawing, the creative process, and presentation - from the basics of "How to Draw a Line" to the complexities of color theory - provide a much-needed primer in architectural literacy, making concrete what too often is left nebulous or open-ended in the architecture curriculum. Each lesson utilizes a two-page format, with a brief explanation and an illustration that can range from diagrammatic to whimsical.The lesson on "How to Draw a Line" is illustrated by examples of good and bad lines; a lesson on the dangers of awkward floor level changes shows the television actor Dick Van Dyke in the midst of a pratfall; a discussion of the proportional differences between traditional and modern buildings features a drawing of a building split neatly in half between the two. Written by an architect and instructor who remembers well the fog of his own student days, "101 Things I Learned in Architecture School" provides valuable guideposts for navigating the design studio and other classes in the architecture curriculum. Architecture graduates - from young designers to experienced practitioners - will turn to the book as well, for inspiration and a guide back to basics when solving a complex design problem.

Publication Date: 2002-06-28
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0415261716
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780415261715
Binding: Hardcover
Product Description:
Completely revised and restructured, the new edition of Transport Planning describes the evolution of transport policies and planning, linking the past with the contemporay and future debates.
A Retrospective Analysis describes the recent past and how the current situation in research and practice on transport planning has developed, including a new chapter on events since 1997, with the difficulties of finding the means to introduce the social market.
The second part of the book begins with a Comparative Analysis of experience in three European countries (Germany, France and the Netherlands) and the United States. It covers both transport planning and evaluation, where different approaches have been developed in response to national policy issues and the different cultural and analytical traditions. The final part is a Prospective Analysis of the key issues facing transport planners in the twenty-first century.

Product Description:
Rogers: Highway Engineering
This book provides an introduction to highway engineering for students on degree and diploma courses in civil engineering. It moves in a logical sequence from the planning and economic justification for a highway, through the geometric design and traffic analysis of highway links and intersections, to the design and maintenance of both flexible and rigid pavements.
Existing texts have tended to concentrate purely on highway planning and analysis, or on pavement design and maintenance aspects of highway engineering. As a result, the standard has tended to be too advanced for students studying the subject for the first time. This textbook covers the basic ground in both areas. It features worked examples and case studies as an aid to understanding individual topics and aims to provide the student with a solid, practically based foundation for the topic of highway engineering, thus providing a gateway to the more advanced and specialised texts

Publisher: CRC
Number Of Pages: 888

Sales Rank: 294747
ISBN / ASIN: 0849319862
Beginning with financing, access management, environmental impacts, road safety, and noise, this book explores the expanded responsibilities of the modern highway engineer as well as the increasing trend toward privatization of project development and financing.
The next section considers technical issues in highway and pavement engineering, including materials, new mechanistic-empirical design approaches, new closed-form solutions for backcalculation, and deflection and stress computation in multi-slab systems. Rounding out the discussion, the final section examines construction, management, performance evaluation including nondestructive testing, and a chapter devoted to highway asset management
