Product Description
This concise manual goes beyond a series of independent tools and commands to consider the process of creating professional-quality building design projects using the newest release of
Autodesk® Architectural Desktop (ADT). Content focuses squarely on the rationale and practicality of ADT 2006 through life-tested, practical lessons that emphasize "why" as well as "how" in order to help readers complete their projects successfully. The text and lessons combine to give an unmistakable sense of the value of the tools introduced as well as a clear indication of each tool's potential. The result is an up-to-the-minute resource that shortens the learning curve and instills confidence and comfort in usage of the
software as a tool to create architecture.

Reader ReviewsI look forward to the updated "Mastering " series every time I upgrade Architectural Desktop. Aubin's writings are kind of a clearing of the fog for me. I would hate to have to muddle through the new features without some direction and most of the other publications I've looked into seem very long winded and redundant but the "Mastering " books get right to the nuts & bolts.
