Traditionalpaper blueprints are quickly becoming too primitive to meet the needs of the current buildingindustry. Architects now share CAD drawings to expedite the design development and reviewcycles in order to increase construction productivity. In addition, researchers suggest that usingCAD increases the students’ creativity and problem solving [3].Familiarity with the development and exchange of CAD drawings is now a necessary skill inmost engineering fields in
