Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to a software tool that facilitates the presentation of a three-dimensional view of a construction project as well as the generation of various types of two-dimensional technical drawings based on this three-dimensional view. In one implementation, the software tool causes a computing device to engage in the following operations. The computing device may receive a user input identifying at least one first mesh and at least one second mesh, determine portions of each identified mesh that intersect with a two-dimensional plane, and generate a two-dimensional drawing including a display of relevant dimensioning information based on the determined portions.
