What you can do with Civil 3D

Survey

Download, create, analyse and adjust survey data. Streamline the transfer of field-captured data to and from the office. (video: 11 sec.)

Learn more
Terrain modelling

Create comprehensive digital models of ground topography for studies such as land-use feasibility, transportation system planning and water flow simulations. (video: 14 sec.)

Learn more
Corridor modelling

Create dynamic and data-rich corridor models for designs such as residential roads, kerbs and footpaths, swales within a subdivision and car park design. (video: 10 sec.)

Learn more
Vehicle tracking

Use swept path analysis to speed up planning and evaluate safety standards compliance. Animate vehicle paths with 2D or 3D animations using multiple camera angles. (video: 20 sec.)

Learn more
Stormwater and sanitary sewer

Model storm and sanitary sewer systems. Analyse networks to resize pipes, reset inverts and compute energy and hydraulic gradient lines according to HEC-22 standards.

Learn more
Stormwater analysis

Integrate stormwater and wastewater analysis during planning and design of urban drainage systems, storm and sanitary sewers. (video: 39 secs)

Learn more
Pressurised utilities

Lay out horizontal and vertical 3D design of pressure networks. Model deflected-bend segments and use design and depth checks to meet project standards. (video: 11 sec.)

Learn more
Design automation

Use a visual programming application to generate scripts that automate repetitive and complex tasks. Save these scripts in a library and reuse them as needed. (video: 1.49 min.)
Materials and quantities

Use materials and sectional or profile information to create reports for volumes along an alignment, comparing design and existing ground surfaces and quantity take-off. (video: 13 sec.)
