3D Graphics Application System

Abstract

This project is about a 3D graphics system for engineers and architects. Its goal is twofold: to provide tools for drawing 3D models, and to create a database support system where data related to these models would be stored (at present the first part has been implemented). Costs, materials, calculations of loads, stresses, and other important factors will be available to the user during the whole design process. The system will therefore allow for drawing realistic projects, not just conceptual visual models. The drawing tools provided by the system include a few drawing techniques and viewing functions. The system’s drawing routines operate on sets of points, lines, or components so that they are very fast and efficient. This approach to the method of drawing along with the description of the system are given in the following write-up.
