SolidBuilder

SolidBuilder is one of the older softwares and is rather commonly used which makes it easier to use it – there’s always someone who has used it at some point in their life and knows a trick or two about it. It’s construction abilities are extensive – including 3D modelling, framing, roof generation and so on. In fact, I’m sure most of the older constructional engineers have had their share of time with this software as it’s very reliable and professional with both drawing, sketching and rendering.

As I mentioned, SolidBuilder is an older program and I see there its’ biggest downside – it’s not modern and projects done on older versions don’t function that well on newer ones which can cause some issues over time. Also, it’s not very cheap, in fact it’s one of the priciest designing softwares I’ve had!

I am a little nostalgic when it comes to SolidBuilder and I think every professional in this field should have some time to work with this program as it’s a standing point for all the newer softwares for 3D. Though little pricey, it’s extensive features make it up and I believe it can be a great investment for anyone interested in detailed, accurate results.
