A shape detailing device includes a storage unit that stores therein an identifier of each structure in an electrical computer-aided design (CAD) system and an identifier of the structure in a mechanical CAD system associated with each other, and a converting unit that converts shape information of the structure created by the electrical CAD system into shape information for the mechanical CAD system based on the relation between the identifiers.

A base-plane-height determining unit determines whether a base plane is formed with planes of different heights. A base-plane determining unit determines, when it is determined that the base plane is formed with the plural planes of different heights, whether to take the plural planes or a single plane as a basis. A height-limited-area-information creating unit creates, when it is determined to take the plural planes as the basis, height-limited-area information by taking different planes for different locations as the basis, otherwise, the height-limited-area information by taking a single plane from among the plural planes as the basis.

A CAD supporting apparatus supports an assembling of an assembly by a CAD for assembling an assembly constituted of a plurality of components, which creates a geometry of objects, in cooperation with the CAD. The CAD supporting apparatus has: a data separating section for separating, upon receipt of CAD data representative of an assembly, which has a format suitable for being dealt with the CAD, from the CAD, the CAD data into structure data representative of a structure of the assembly, geometry data representative of a geometry of components constituting the assembly, and position data representative of a position of components on the assembly; an attribute set up section for setting up an attribute onto data separated by said data separating section in accordance with the operation; and a CAD data reconstruction section for creating CAD data representative of an assembly, which has a format suitable for being dealt with in the CAD, from data separated by said data separating section and reflecting the attribute set up by said attribute set up section, and for transmitting the CAD data created to the CAD.

In a design support apparatus for supporting a CAD system designing a component, a material of the component indicated by a process request is specified based on a plurality of design information of the CAD system and an environmental impact of the component is calculated based on the environmental impact rate and weight of the component. Therefore, the environmental impact of the component indicated by the CAD system is assessed.
