Sure Loc Interlocking and CAD Technology

For decades, Sure Loc Interlocking has been building driveways, patios, pool decks,

retaining walls, and more for its customers. The company employs the latest technology

to do its work, including computer-aided drafting, or CAD.

CAD offers a number of advantages over old-fashioned hand drafting. CAD software treats

lines as mathematically defined vectors, which allows the designer to alter them and

the program to adjust the rest of the picture to fit the changes automatically. CAD also

allows zooming, switching between two- and three-dimensional views, and image rotation

and scaling. CAD has reduced the cost of design work by allowing companies to use

fewer drafters. The reduced cost of the work has in turn made it easier to play with

different ideas.

At Sure Loc Interlocking, the company’s designers use CAD technology to show a

homeowner what his or her project or landscaping will look like before work begins

on it. The approach allows clients to understand their projects more fully and to

make revisions easily and efficiently.
