Autodesk Civil 3D: Comprehensive detailed design and documentation software for civil infrastructure
Civil 3D is an innovative software civil engineers and architect professionals use to plan, design, and document construction projects. It supports BIM (building information modeling) workflows on civil infrastructure projects, such as highways, airports, rail, and site development.
The software helps professionals decrease risk and errors, respond quicker to changes, and deliver the project efficiently. It allows users to streamline tedious tasks like intersection design, corridor design, piping design, site grading, and parcel layout with certain tools and configurable design standards.
Key features of Autodesk Civil 3D
Site and survey workflows
Download, create, analyze, and adjust survey data, as well as transfer field-captured data to the office
Terrain modeling
Create digital models of topography for land-use studies, transportation system planning, and water flow simulations
Corridor modeling
Create dynamic and data-rich corridor models for highways, roads, and rail tracks
Intersection design
Create dynamic models of 3-way (T-shaped) or 4-way intersections, as well as roundabouts
Drainage design and analysis
Manage stormwater and sanitary sewer design. Define pipeline paths, optimized with hydraulics/hydrology analysis
Pressure networks
Lay out horizontal and vertical pressure network designs; model deflected-curve pipe segments and use design and depth checks
Plan production and documentation
Quickly create construction documents from drawings, including plan/profile, plan(s)-only, profile(s)-only, and section sheets
Interoperability
Civil 3D supports import, export, and links with commonly used CAD formats, including IFC, and connects with Esri ArcGIS and Bentley data
Design automation
Use visual programming to generate scripts that automate repetitive and complex tasks, including electrification and signaling
Geotechnical modeling
Visualize and analyze subsurface data and easily utilize that data directly in the Civil 3D design model
Materials and quantities
Use materials and sectional or profile information to create reports for volumes, comparing design and existing surfaces and quantity takeoff
Bridge design
Coordinate workflows more efficiently across the various disciplines working on complex bridge design projects
