Solid Surfaces

I really like as a method to create a more tangible 3D object for use in Navisworks/Revit and others

I have shown on this blog a couple of methods to create these solids and its not easy and time consuming.

So with one operation you can create solids with multi varying TIN’s or to a datum level/elevation

Maybe even 3D print your results, it is now easy

Solid Pipes

So the pipe models are already solid objects, but if you are looking to publish as standard 3D objects and remove the proxy Civil object, this makes this task very simple.

InfraWorks – Civil 3D

Bringing together conceptual design of InfraWorks to complete the detailed design in Civil 3D

Direct import from your local InfraWorks model to import surfaces, geometry, pipe networks to your own Civil 3D styles.

On import you can select the area of interest, aided by bing maps to save trying to import the whole InfraWorks model.

Finally

Geometry curve editor

is for those surveyors out there to handle your COGO editing requirements
