Civil 3D for Roadworks & Earthworks

Explore Civil 3D’s dynamic, model-based tools for roadworks and earthworks. Civil engineers and surveyors learn how to develop and compare design alternatives efficiently.

Practise organising project information, managing points, building and analysing surfaces, modelling corridors and laying out parcels. The course also covers grading, cut-and-fill quantities and project documentation.

Develop a foundation in assemblies, corridors, intersections and related civil-design features. Guided learning helps participants work through Civil 3D’s demanding tools in a structured way.

At the end of the course, you will be able to:

• Learn the Autodesk Civil 3D user interface
• Create and edit parcels and print parcel reports
• Create points and point groups and work with survey figures
• Create, edit, view, and analyse surfaces
• Create and edit alignments
• Create data shortcuts
• Create sites, profiles, and cross-sections
• Create assemblies, corridors, and intersections
• Create grading solutions
• Create gravity fed and pressure pipe networks
• Perform quantity take off and volume calculations
• Use plan production tools to create plan and profile sheets
