Grading Optimization for Civil 3D
Grading Optimization overview (video: 1:58 min.)
Grading Optimization automates time-consuming grading tasks. Assess grading designs based on project constraints, explore alternatives to determine the best solution, and return the optimized grading plan to Civil 3D for detailed design.
Autodesk Docs for civil engineers
Autodesk Docs overview (video: 1:59 min.)
Connect infrastructure design workflows in the cloud for teams using Civil 3D, Revit, AutoCAD, InfraWorks, and other tools in the Architecture, Engineering & Construction Collection.
Project Explorer for Civil 3D
Project Explorer overview (video: 2:01 min.)
Project Explorer provides an easy-to-use tool for design-data review and user-configurable report generation, helping you navigate, interact, and share Civil 3D design information with ease.
What our customers say
THOMAS & HUTTON
Sustainable site design
“Being able to quickly iterate and analyze multiple design scenarios, develop preliminary permitting documents, and collaborate both internally and externally—the Autodesk applications brought all those things together.” —Charles D’Errico, IT Systems Analyst, Thomas & Hutton.
