1. Give an example of how a 3D solid computer model could be used in each step of the design
process and the purpose each model would serve.

Computer-Aided Design (CAD) is no longer an extra aid, but a must for the design process. If we take heed of the dynamic for today’s market, traditional design is unlikely to satisfy rapid innovation demand. On the other hand, CAD offers tools that thoroughly reduce design cycles in time and cost savings. With its maximum accuracy, there’s no need for redrawing after drafting mistakes nor manufacturing prototypes. For every phase of the design process, there’s something CAD will always offer.
