3D design is a section of computer graphics involved in the visualization of design projects in three dimensions. The scope of this technology is extremely huge: from three-dimensional visualization of houses to 3D projects of various process objects.
The main advantage of 3D designing is the visibility of the result, when the client can see the project not in the form of many different obscure drawings, but as a realistic photograph that can be rotated and viewed with approximation and from different angles. Moreover, this 3D project is not static – at the request of the client, you can make the necessary changes to it and immediately evaluate their results, including the possibility of practical implementation. Moreover, in parallel with the visualization of the object, the corresponding project documentation is automatically generated.
Of course, the mass distribution of 3D designing became possible due to the increased productivity of computer equipment and the creation of special software. To be competitive in the field of designing any kind of objects, an engineer, designer or architect must be able to effectively use the capabilities of modern programs. This will allow not only to demonstrate the 3D model to the client, but also to avoid many errors that are much easier to take into account and correct at the design stage than after the object has already been created.
Currently, in the engineering and design areas of many industries, there is a transition to new production technologies using automated three-dimensional modeling systems. The current practice shows that at a single enterprise for the automation of various design disciplines several systems of three-dimensional modeling can be implemented based on different platforms that are not integrated among themselves. At the same time, the task of automating an individual specialist is well solved, the problem of the interaction of specialists within the same discipline is satisfactorily solved, and the task of interaction of various disciplines is practically impossible to solve without significant additional investments.
In the design process, there are many collisions, overlaps, errors. Subsequent modifications at the construction stage (in metal and concrete) lead to significant financial losses and a delay in the commissioning of the facility. The system of working with three-dimensional models allows you to immediately see these errors and eliminate (minimize) them already at the stage of project creation. You can open a project of one institute, “load” a second project and see how it all will look in reality.

Today, there are huge varieties of different software products that allow you to design in a 3D environment. KGNT specialists in their daily activities already use many software systems. One of these complexes is SmartPlant. SmartPlant 3D, the most advanced enterprise design software in twenty years, is Intergraph’s next-generation data-driven, rule-driven solution. It optimizes engineering design processes while preserving existing data and making them more usable/reusable. This comprehensive solution includes all the possibilities for the design of the enterprise and maintaining its performance over the entire service life. The ability to predict the situation provides continuous, consistent control over the changes.
SmartPlant 3D provides intelligent mapping to the project database, supporting features such as interference detection, generating drawings, creating viewing filters, sending requests and accessing performance data.
