Cadwork Engineer

Cadwork Engineer is a transportation corridor building information modeling software developed beginning in 2004 by Cadwork informatik AG in Switzerland. Engineer is notable in that when combined with cadwork Lexocad, it is one of the few pieces of 'BIM' infrastructure software.

An early adopter is Marti Group, which implemented cadwork Engineer in the BIM configuration on a civil engineering project in the Baselland Canton.
