CADS RC 2018 released

December 5, 2017

CADS RC 2018 is now released and available free of charge to all maintained customers.

This release adds support for AutoCAD 2018 & AutoCAD Architecture 2018. As a leading authorized AutoCAD developer, we ensure our software is always compatible with their latest release.

As well as the general functionality improvements and corrections we have now:

Improved the “Order Materials” dialogue to allow the user to create a new folder for production output.
Updated the Soulé file output so it now includes bar marks for straight bars, based on the configuration. If the configuration, “Include bar mark for straight bars” is set to ‘Yes’, then the bar mark will be output for the straight bars and if it is set to ‘No’, then the bar mark will not be output.

If you have CADScover just contact us and we will send you the 2018 update.

"I just wished to pass on our thanks and appreciation for the assistance that you and the wider team have provided to us over the recent weeks in undertaking the RC detailing of a number of drawings at short notice. Now we have made the link and have understood your capabilities and responsiveness, we will have no hesitation in considering utilising CADS-RC for any future opportunities that may arise."

Nigel Blair, Civil & Structural Consultant

"It was a real privilege and great pleasure to work with all of the members of the CADS Detailers team. We have enjoyed the excellent personality and the outstanding professionalism of all the CADS people we have worked with. On behalf of the FYAP team we thank them all and wish them good luck and hope to meet again in new projects. The FYAP project has moved from a peak during the past years to an end in the next coming months. CADS and its staff have been at all times very supportive and committed to FYAP’s objectives. This is to acknowledge the high quality of services provided by CADS staff to FYAP Technical Office. Especially their professionalism and performance has been outstanding. All Engineers of both Teams 1 and 2 have exhibited the above mentioned quality and therefore I would like to thank each one and all of them for the faultless and excellent cooperation we had during the project."
