Venkatesh constructs projects involving structural and mechanical design and drafting. He is skilled in the use of Skype and Mikogo to interact and share screens with clients, and often uses them to exchange details with colleagues. He is competent in the use of AutoCAD 2D and 3D as well as Revit and specializes in 3D modelling. He is also competent in ArchiCAD and Rhinoceros 3D.
He has created simulations for heating and ventilation systems using Revit. He also handles projects involving raster to vector conversions. One of the projects that he found most challenging was with Esplanade One Mall in Bhubaneswar for which he worked on the technology of facade and curtain wall glazing. He is also skilled in flying ribbon modelling which was also applied in this project.
Over the last few years he has worked on a number of projects for steel contractors and real estate clients in Australia. He has worked on product design for a leading global contractor in engineering and interior systems. He also specializes in conceptual modelling using grasshopper code and Tekla for steel modelling.
H. Sanghani has worked as a project architect for some of the leading firms in India, focusing on railway stations, airports and interior design projects. Mr. Sanghani oversaw all design activities for the companies he worked with, and managed a team of 2D and 3D designers (focusing on Photoshop, AutoCAD and 3DMax). He received his M.Sc. in Environmental Engineering and Sustainable Infrastructure from the Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden, and is a member of the Council of Architecture in India.
Patel has been drafting and designing since 2008. He has been actively involved in product development for a number of companies. The 3D models and simulations that he creates are further used to estimate actual weight and area of objects, lookout of objects and manufacturing time.
He has constructed 3D models and simulations for aircraft test equipment and test stands, models for aircraft and industrial load banks, packaging solutions for the pharma and pesticide industries, design drawings for food and dairy. He has fabricated drawings for brewery, cosmetics and all types of gear boxes, design models for industrial hoists and cranes, packaging solutions for hydroponic fodder systems and models for bellows expansion joints in cross country pipelines. He has produced drawings for heat exchangers, pressure vessels and tanks, hydraulic solutions, foundry and furnace industries and ceramic industries. Working as a CAD professional on these projects, he has gained confidence in his skill as a CAD engineer.
He feels that the projects he found most interesting and challenging were for:
His favorite tools are AutoCAD for 2D, SolidWorks for 3D, CreoFusion360 and Inventor.
According to Mr. Patel, there is an increasing demand for CAD-based projects that require 2D drafting, isometric drawings, schematic diagrams, 3D modelling, simulation, animation, surface modelling, sheet metal work, weldment, piping and routing and analysis.
He typically works remotely and communicates via email. He also uses Skype frequently and finds it very effective, although he says sometimes it’s difficult to handle troubleshooting on Skype due to file size and formatting limitations.
