=== Products and technical details ===

cadwork is mainly known for their timber industry wood products, but in Switzerland, it is a leading software for civil engineers. In 2004, cadwork started the development of Lexocad, a BIM-level design-planning-construction software that pushes the boundaries of the construction industry technology development.

* cadwork [[2D geometric model|2D]]: The entry-level module to cadwork 2d with two-dimensional lines and surfaces with different [[Hatching|hatches]]. It is a '' '2.5D CAD system' '', in addition to [[Two-dimensional space|two-dimensional]] editing, cadwork 2d also allows for [[height]] information. Height information is particularly suitable for construction planning while transitioning from 2D to the 3D module, which in 3d provides for developing a tender for construction project competitions. An alternative to cadwork 2D is [[AutoCAD]]. A module of cadwork 2d allows for [[reinforced concrete]] and [[geographic information system]] (GIS) plans. The file format is .2d.

=== Research and development collaborations ===

* University:

** cadwork informatik AG is an active member of the Center for Integrated Facility Engineering (CIFE), [[Stanford University]]. In collaboration with world-renowned theorist in the built environment, Professor Fischer, cadwork advances knowledge in infrastructure BIM products including infra-BIM features for [[Building information modeling|3D design]], [[4D BIM|4D scheduling]], [[5D BIM|5D pricing]], and [[6D BIM|6D execution]].

** cadwork informatik AG partnered on a "Science to Market" project with the Institute of 4D Technologies (i4Ds), [[Bern University of Applied Sciences|University of Applied Sciences Northwestern Switzerland]]. This project included the Swiss Federation Innovation Agency (KTI/CTI) and industry partner [[Swiss Federal Railways]] Corporation (SBB) in Bern.
