RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Submersible Design Software


AutoCAD & Turbo CAD question,
My knowledge on using cad to design is very limited so I have been using pen, paper and maths to calculate the weight and displacement and from there work out if it will actually work. Does Turbo CAD do all this? I know a guy who helps me determine the weight of the steel pipes and various other pieces of steel pending on the type of steel and thickness. Is this already in Turbo Cad's DB to calculate weight of a structure. I got very excited hearing what Turbo CAD can do from the mail list and would like to go out now and get my very own CAD program.

Kindest Regards,
Marius
