Barry Milliken is a practicing Registered Architect with extensive computer aided design (CAD) experience.\u00a0 He uses Visio for most of his design work because it\u2019s an easy and cost effective 2D graphics program.\u00a0 Barry created a custom solution for drawing site plans in Visio and has partnered with Visimation to offer it as a Visio add-on product called visiSitePlan<\/a>.<\/p>\n

VisiSitePlan contains several stencils with intelligently programmed shapes that automate a variety of drawing tasks.\u00a0 The beauty of using Visio for these kinds of plans is that you can more easily create very colorful drawings suitable for presentation as well as for the actual construction.\u00a0 Most traditional CAD systems produce line drawings that are not very attractive.<\/p>\n

This solution combines Visio\u2019s built-in features for architectural drawings with Barry\u2019s enhancements and Tutorial files to help you get started.\u00a0 There are also shapes and tools for properly calculating and annotating site information.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n

This is for homeowners and designers who would like to draw these plans without spending thousands of dollars on a CAD system.\u00a0 It\u2019s especially economical if you are already a Visio user.<\/p>\n
