Revising a design with a computer aided software allows you to save work and make progressional changes throughout the design process.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><b>Accuracy<\/b> &#8211; This is an important one. Your goal as a landscape designer is to get projects built. During the construction phase, accurate drawings will ensure contractors to have a seamless building process, which results in accurate project costs and project schedules.<\/li>\n<li><b>Material Calculation<\/b> &#8211; The age of using a ruler to calculate SF or LF of materials is over. With AutoCAD, properties of linework allow you to easily access measurements of areas.<\/li>\n<li><b>Reduces Error <\/b>&#8211; Instead of using a scale to draw exact measurements like 10\u2019-3\u201d, within AutoCAD you can simply type those measurements and a line of exactly that length will appear.<\/li>\n<li><b>Authenticity in Design<\/b> &#8211; This is one of the biggest differences between Dynascape and AutoCAD. Your clients will recognize the legibility of your landscape plan while your style as a designer will show through your drawing sets (this sets you apart from other designers and gives you an opportunity to brand yourself in the field)<\/li>\n<li><b>High Detail<\/b> &#8211; As I mentioned above, AutoCAD is unlimited. That goes for the same as zooming in. You can zoom in to any area on a landscape plan and develop a higher level of detail for any part of your design such as control joints between concrete slabs as a quick example.<\/li>\n<li><b>Importing Capabilities<\/b> &#8211; We live and work in the digital age where we now receive information in PDF format or JPEG format. Both these formats can be imported into AutoCAD easily and quickly.<\/li>\n<li><b>Commands<\/b> &#8211; Shortcuts and commands actually make you design faster. Instead of hand drawing a paver hatch to show the client materials in the design, AutoCAD automatically fills in an area. This allows you to study different patterns and material and pick what\u2019s best for the client and design.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Year after year, since 1982, AutoCAD has been one of the most comprehensive landscape design computer aided design programs that the majority of the industry uses.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-da14c3a elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"da14c3a\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-eb4f120\" data-id=\"eb4f120\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-891c756 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"891c756\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><b>Where can I learn AutoCAD for Landscape Design?<\/b><\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-b4d628b elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"b4d628b\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-d3edb9d\" data-id=\"d3edb9d\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0a727d7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"0a727d7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/thelandscapelibrary.com\/our-courses\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"847\" src=\"https:\/\/thelandscapelibrary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/mac-screen-with-dwg.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-8842\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">AutoCAD Training for Landscape Design by The Landscape Library<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-57cf434 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"57cf434\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>An all-in-one and affordable online course teaching AutoCAD (specific to the landscape design field) didn\u2019t exist &#8211; until now.<\/p><p>Learning AutoCAD as your designated software, on average, will take 6 months to 1 year of your time.
