Engineering design tools are essentially software applications and supporting services that are used for the creation of infrastructure and plant physical assets.

What is communication in engineering design?

The main types of communication are oral (brainstorming, presentations, discussions), written (memos, reports, product manuals) and graphical (sketches, working drawings, 3D CAD models), and their combinations.

How do engineers communicate effectively?

Engineering managers communicate with clients and their own supervisors about new projects. They also relay project parameters and deadlines to their reports, while providing updates to their managers and clients. Good managers invest significant amounts of time in setting their engineers up for success.
