Reduction in cost of using CAD/CAE systems : a study of local civil and structural consulting firms

This report describes a model that was found to be suitable to perform cost savings analysis in using CAD/CAE systems. The model is further developed for typical civil and structural design offices' environment. The evaluation process leading to a purchase of a new system or upgrade of an exist...
