I got DynaCADD 2.04 (4 Disks) It seems okay but complex and the instruction manual is useless. I could try installing it on my 3.9 A1200 and see if it works.
DynaCadd is the best CAD package (mechanical engineering) for the Amiga that I know of.
It runs flawlessly on my A4000PPC with OS3.9/WarpOS and offers full 2D functionality as well as full 3D functionality.
I even have a tool that can convert the data from a 3D model to an executable CNC program, that can be fed to an CNC machine for manufacturing.
The second best CAD program for the Amiga (from my point of view, also for mechanical engineering) is MaxxonCAD, but this one is just 2D (some say its 2 and a half D, as it supports perspective drawings).
This one runs as well flawlessly with OS3.9/WarpOS.
And yes, both programs are old - from the early ninetees, IIRC...
If you are looking for CAD for electronics on the Amiga, I'd like to mention "Newio 3.5". Here you can enter the schematics and Newio does the routing for the circuit board layout.
I have a weak remembrance of two other (quite helpful) programs:
LogicWorks and (IIRC) DigitalWorkbench - but I can't recall their exact features now - its simply too long ago (and indicates that these are old programs, too).
"Cycas" for architectual purposes already has been mentioned - hmmmm, I think that's it from my side...
