This special publication to our Have You Tried series of articles focuses on Grading Optimization for Civil 3D, a capability launched last year. Here you’ll find an overview of what Grading Optimization can do for you. This article also presents our series of Ask Me Anything: Grading Optimization YouTube Live sessions (GO Live), and shares […]

Visualize subsurface data to improve decisions and minimize risk across your projects  Modeling subsurface information is critical when working on new design projects or the rehabilitation of existing capital assets. It involves the analysis of soils, rocks, and other earth materials, and assessing their impact on the construction and performance on every type of project […]

Looking to expedite your workflow in InfraWorks? We are very excited for the Have You Tried this month, featuring an amazing tool: Grading Areas.  Check it out with us!   Grading areas help you identify development areas in an InfraWorks model. It helps update grading information and add grading styles without affecting the unidentified areas. And the best part about using Grading styles is allowing you to specify cut slope, cut material, fill slope, and […]

With the latest releases of Civil 3D and InfraWorks, our new Civil Infrastructure Products Public Roadmap is here! Featuring performance enhancements and product insights you asked for, our product management team is hosting an Ask Me Anything YouTube Live session to go through it all.   Now let’s talk more about why we created this masterpiece. While we have posted public roadmaps in the past, we wanted customers to have a single, more holistic view of the key capabilities […]

You spoke and we listened. The latest release of Civil 3D and InfraWorks bring performance improvements and functionality updates to civil design workflows. Starting with Civil 3D 2022.1, we enhanced the overall performance of the product and enhanced the efficiency of common corridor modeling workflows. We added retaining wall grading objects for quick iterations of […]

Make it.”  Featuring industry experts from architecture, engineering, construction, manufacturing, and media and entertainment, AU 2021 offers plenty of content specifically geared towards civil engineering professionals.  You will find a variety […]

In this month’s edition of our Have You Tried series, we’ll be taking a close look at the Shared Reference Point extension for Civil 3D and Revit. Civil 3D and Revit manage coordinate systems in different ways. Because of the difference in coordinate systems, using the shared reference point extension can greatly improve the organization […]

For this edition of our Have You Tried series, let’s take a closer look at the Linear Feature Extraction workflow in InfraWorks.  Extraction of linear information such as breaklines, edges, building footprints, and property boundaries from point clouds or other data can be very valuable when performing conceptual design and detailed design.   The Linear Feature Extraction in InfraWorks allows users to quickly extract line or linear features from an InfraWorks terrain , incorporate them into their InfraWorks model, and export them for use in other products like Civil 3D.   […]

In the Have You Tried for this month, we cover a new extension in Civil 3D – Project Explorer.    Being able to manage a big amount of project data in your Civil 3D drawings can be tricky at times and is extremely difficult. Let’s take a look at how Project Explorer can help you streamline your workflows.  What is it?  Project Explorer is an all-in-one hub for managing […]

Bring your InfraWorks models to life like never before!  Our latest Have You Tried topic is all about Vegetation in InfraWorks. This amazing feature helps fully capture the look, function, and design of your infrastructure projects including roads, highways, or site development. Creating a more complete vision of the model.  Adding plants, trees, terrain features, and other vegetation generate a landscape appeal to your drawing. InfraWorks 2022 release, offers new 3D ground cover models such as flowers, bushes, and grasses.   Vegetation feature helps provide stakeholders with a better […]
