modern civil engineering practice, significantly transforming the way engineering drawings, designs, construction plans, and technical documentation are prepared and managed. Among the various CAD software packages available, AutoCAD is one of the most widely used tools in the civil engineering profession because of its flexibility, accuracy, drafting capabilities, and compatibility with different engineering workflows. The application of AutoCAD extends across several areas of civil engineering, including architectural planning, structural detailing, surveying, transportation engineering, water resources engineering, construction planning, and infrastructure development.  \nThis research paper examines the application, significance, advantages, limitations, and future potential of AutoCADin civil engineering. The study focuses on how AutoCAD assists civil engineers in preparing precise two-dimensional drawings, developing layouts, modifying designs, generating construction details, and producing standardized technical documentation. It also examines its application in the preparation of site plans, building plans, elevations, sections, road alignments, drainage layouts, structural drawings, reinforcement details, surveying drawings, and other engineering documentation. The software enables engineers to create accurate geometric representations and make rapid modifications without the need to recreate complete drawings, thereby improving productivity and reducing drafting errors.  \nKeywords: AutoCAD; Computer-Aided Design (CAD); Civil Engineering; Civil Engineering Drafting; Technical Drawing; Engineering Design; Construction Drawings; Structural Detailing; Architectural Planning; Surveying; Road Design; Infrastructure Development; 2D Drafting; 3D Modeling; Digital Design; Construction Documentation; CAD Applications; Engineering Visualization; BIM; Digital Construction.  \nINTRODUCTION  \nCivil engineering is one of the oldest and most important branches of engineering, concerned with the planning, design, construction, operation, and maintenance of infrastructure such as buildings, roads, bridges, dams, drainage systems, water-supply networks, airports, and other public facilities. The successful execution of civil engineering projects depends not only on sound engineering principles but also on accurate drawings, specifications, calculations, planning, and effective communication among various professionals involved in a project. Engineering drawings serve as an essential medium for communicating design concepts, dimensions, construction details, material requirements, and technical information from the design stage to actual construction. Consequently, the development of efficient methods for preparing and managing engineering drawings has played an important role in the advancement of the civil engineering profession.  \nInternational Journal of Scientific Research in Engineering and Management (IJSREM)  \nVolume: 10 Issue: 09 | Sep-2026 SJIF Rating: 8.659 ISSN: 2582-3930  \nTraditionally, civil engineering drawings were prepared manually using instruments such as drawing boards, Tsquares, set squares, scales, compasses, pencils, and other drafting equipment.
