hsbLOG

3D CAD/CAM for the Design of log structures  

hsbLOG is the design module for carpenters, the prefabricated building industry and Offsite Construction which is integrated with the leading CAD platform today worldwide, AutoCAD. AutoCAD, a member of the Autodesk group, has over 5 million official licenses worldwide and are the market leaders for CAD design software.  Functions such as move, copy, rotate and mirror are only a matter of course.   AutoCAD is today integrated into many schools and unniversities and is fast becoming a technical knowledge condition in gaining employment.   Architectural Desktop (ADT), a family extension of AutoCAD, and contains additonal functionality for concept design, architectural  and planning design.   hsbLOG is completely integrated with AutoCAD and ADT, as a design platform that utilises all these familiar tools to make an easy and recognisable platform in any design discipline.
