What is 3D CAD in Roof Wizard?

Understand the built-in 3D CAD modelling capabilities and how they power Roof Wizard's calculations and visualisations.

Updated over 2 weeks ago

Roof Wizard includes a full-function 3D CAD modelling program built directly into the software. This is the core technology that powers all calculations, visualisations, and design capabilities throughout the platform.


🧾 What 3D CAD does in Roof Wizard

The 3D CAD system provides all the capabilities you expect from a commercial 3D modelling program, specifically optimised for roofing professionals. While you have access to comprehensive modelling tools, they're designed to work seamlessly with roofing workflows and calculations.


πŸ›  Roofing applications for 3D CAD

The 3D CAD capabilities enable you to:

  • Model complex hip and valley intersections with precision

  • Design custom guttering and drainage solutions

  • Create detailed roof extensions and additions

  • Visualise how different roof materials will appear

  • Generate accurate measurements for complex roof geometries

  • Test structural modifications before implementation


πŸ’‘ Key benefits for roofing professionals

The integrated 3D CAD system means you can create detailed, accurate roof models without switching between different software programs. All measurements, calculations, and material estimates are automatically updated as you modify your 3D model.


πŸ”§ Getting started with 3D CAD

The 3D CAD tools are available throughout Roof Wizard's interface. You can access basic drawing functions through the main toolbar, with advanced modelling capabilities available through the CAD menu system.
