TopSolid development
AP169.S2
Description:
Series 2, TopSolid development, 1992 - 2011, documents Bernard Cache’s contribution to the development of the software TopSolid. This series includes born-digital material and chiefly dates from 1999 - 2008. Created in 1987 by Missler software, TopSolid was one of the first computer-aided design (CAD) software usable on portable computers. Bernard Cache was an early adopter of TopSolid and was later asked to contribute to the development of further versions of the software. It then became one of the first pieces of software to support both CAD and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), which resulted from a radical proposition to link parametric design software seamlessly to robotic manufacturing. Bernard Cache’s contribution to this project underscores his interest for mathematics, geometry, and engineering reflected in his other areas of architectural and design work. Materials in this series portray Cache’s role in the development of the software. This includes programming records for the codes and configuration of the software which are primarily in plain text formats, still images and CAD formats (TopSolid). It also includes programming records for TopWood,an alternate software derived from TopSolid and developed to target the specificities of the wood industry. There are also a significant number of textual records, which constitutes training documents, bug reports, and correspondence (in Word and Excel formats).

Fonds A.D. Thacker
AP004
Résumé:
The A.D. Thacker fonds is comprised of project proposals and documentation dating from around 1913-1938, depicting structures designed by Thacker. Much of Thacker's work was completed in Quebec, but he also completed projects in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Thacker designed many churches for religious institutions that were directly involved in the oppressive, colonial assimilation policies and systems of the Canadian government towards indigenous people. The fonds contains 33 drawings, 16 reprographic copies, 12 photographs and 8 textual documents.
