ConstructiVision Help Center

Welcome to the ConstructiVision Help Center — the user-facing home for learning and using the tilt-up concrete panel detailing system inside AutoCAD.

This help is organized on the Diátaxis model: four kinds of documentation, each answering a different need. Start with Getting Started if you are new; jump to How-To Guides if you already know the product and need to accomplish a specific task.

🚀 Getting Started

New to ConstructiVision? Install it, load the menu, and take a building from a new project to your first dimensioned panel and panel book.

Getting Started
🎓 Tutorials

Thirteen guided, start-to-finish core lessons — build one panel feature by feature (options, openings, chamfers, connections, brace points), lay out the site and attach the panel set, then finish with the materials list and the printed panel book. An advanced track continues from there.

Tutorials
🛠️ How-To Guides

Twenty-one task-oriented recipes for a user who already knows the basics: add an opening, place hardware, track revisions, generate a panel book, export lift-engineering data.

How-To Guides
🧯 Troubleshooting

Symptom → cause → fix for the problems users hit most often — in AutoCAD and in cv-web — plus where to get help.

Companion videos are in production

The written guides — getting started, all how-to recipes, the sign-in prerequisite (lesson 0), the thirteen-lesson core tutorial curriculum and its advanced track, the troubleshooting entries, and the reference material — are complete, with product screenshots of the dialogs. Lessons 1–12 grade your drawing in-product via CV-CHECK-LESSON, and the panel and site lessons ship with downloadable starter and solution drawings. The companion video for each tutorial is being recorded and will appear alongside its lesson as it ships — except lesson 0, which is written-only by design, since filming it would put an account sign-in on screen.
