Autodesk AutoCAD Civil 3D 2010 [32 & 64 Bit]

AutoDesk AutoCAD Civil 3D software provides complete set of tools that help civil engineering project teams complete land development, transportation, and environmental projects faster and with improved accuracy. With built-in tools for geospatial and storm water analysis, quantity takeoff, and 3D visualization, civil engineers can explore more and optimize project performance.

Create intelligent models of roads and other transportation systems using the corridor modeling functionality. Corridor modeling uses customizable cross-sectional components called subassemblies to create a dynamic model of various types of transportation systems. Directly use alignments, profiles, survey figures, feature lines, and AutoCAD polylines to define corridor transitions and elevation constraints. Use the interactive intersection builder to create complex models through intersecting roads that remain dynamic as your designs change. Corridor models can ultimately be used to create proposed surfaces, earthwork volumes, material totals, drafted cross sections, and more.

Top Features:

Conceptual Design
Pull in aerial imagery and terrain models from the Google Earth™ application; import geographic information system data such as road centerlines and wetlands boundaries.

Surveying
Survey functionality is fully integrated, so users have a more consistent environment for all tasks, including direct import of raw survey data, least-squares adjustment, editing of survey observations, and automated creation of survey figures and surfaces.

Surfaces
Build surfaces from traditional survey data, such as points and breaklines. Utilize large data sets from aerial photogrammetry, and digital elevation models by taking advantage of the surface reduction tools. View the surface as contours or triangles, or create powerful elevation and slope banding analysis.

Parcel Layout
Generate parcels by converting existing AutoCAD® entities or by using flexible layout tools to automate the process. The software uses a topology to manage parcels so that a change to one parcel is automatically reflected in neighboring parcels.

Corridor Modeling
Corridor modeling combines horizontal and vertical geometric constraints with customizable cross sectional components called subassemblies to create a dynamic model of roads and other TS.

Automated Intersection Modeling
Build interactive intersection models that dynamically update, so you can focus on optimizing the design and know the production drawings and annotations will always stay up to date.

Pipes
Use rules-based tools to lay out sanitary and storm drainage systems. Make changes to pipes and structures using graphical or numerical input, and conduct interference checks. Plot and complete final drafting of the pipe network in plan, profile, and section views, and share pipe network information, such as material and size, with external analysis applications.

Plan Production
A comprehensive tool assists with the layout of plan and profile sheets. Fully integrated with the AutoCAD Sheet Set Manager, the Plans Production wizard automates the layout of sheets and matchlines along alignments, and generates plan and profile sheets based on the layout.

Drafting Styles and Standards
The software provides country-specific CAD styles to control many aspects of drawing display. Colours, linetypes, contour increments, labeling, and much more are fully controlled by styles.

Annotation
The software’s annotation is derived directly from design objects or through external references, and updates automatically when the design changes. It also automatically responds to changes in drawing scale and view orientation so if user rotates or changes the plot scale within different viewports, the labels update instantly.

Sustainable Design
AutoCAD Civil 3D software helps make every project more sustainable. When the engineer has a robust model of the site conditions and design constraints and the power to evaluate alternatives, more innovative and environmentally sensitive designs can be considered.

Visualization
Create powerful visualizations that give stakeholders an opportunity to experience the project before it is real.
