"Modeling Skewed Corridors in Civil 3D Occasionally you may need to model a corridor that requires skewed ends. For example this might occur when a corridor meets a bridge where the abutments are not perpendicular to the roadway. Historically Civil 3D does a great job leveraging targets adjacent to a linear design but it isnt always obvious how to apply targets to the corridor ends. In todays session well explore a technique to model this skewed geometry.

"Unlocking the Power of Transparent Commands in Civil 3D Object Snaps are arguably the most important feature in the AutoCAD platform. Their ability to lock on to precise coordinates represents the foundation on which all geometry is created edited and queried. Civil 3D also relies on Object Snaps to model civil infrastructure designs. In addition Civil 3D provides its own collection of engineering related snaps called Transparent Commands. Using Transparent Commands civil engineers can select from 20+ options including: Northing/Easting Bearing/Distance Station/Offset Profile"

"Using AutoCAD Fields to Create Smart Text in Civil 3D Drawings Civil 3D label styles are capable of extracting (and annotating) data stored within Civil objects. Once placed Civil 3D labels update automatically each time an associated object changes. Wouldnt it be nice if we could assign similar labels to non-Civil 3D objects Fortunately we can In this session well be exploring an annotation concept called Fields. Fields (introduced in AutoCAD 2005) provide a way of linking base AutoCAD drawing/object properties to annotations. Since Civil 3D is built upon the AutoCAD platform we can use"

"Taking Advantage of AutoCAD's Annotative Objects in Civil 3D When applied to civil objects Civil 3D's purpose built labels maintain a dynamic link to the underlying civil data AND will size themselves automatically when displayed on construction drawings. That said civil infrastructure designs often include "generic" objects that also require labeling. Many times this can be accomplished using a Civil 3D note OR (depending on your needs) an AutoCAD Annotative object may be a better "fit". In this session we'll explore the concept of annotative objects learn how to create and edit them and"

"Introducing Civil 3D Data Shortcuts One of the biggest benefits of using Civil 3D is the dynamic relationships between civil objects. When one object is edited all dependent objects (and their labels) update automatically. These dynamic relationships can also exist between drawings using a concept called Data Shortcuts. In this session well take our first look at data shortcuts by exploring how they are stored created and referenced.

"Solving Civil 3D / AutoCAD Problems using the Geometric Calculator One of the most powerful (least talked about) AutoCAD / Civil 3D tools is the Geometric Calculator. This built-in calculator allows users to solve complex calculations transparently within running commands. Calculations can also include object snaps In this session we'll explore the basic usage of the calculator syntax object snap usage shortcuts quickcalc palette and more.

"Using Grips to Make "Hands-on" Edits in Civil 3D If you think about it virtually every object you touch in Civil 3D displays grips of one form or another. The more we know about how grips work the more efficient we can be when modifying every aspect of a design. In this [--] min. session we'll explore the evolution of grips from the early days of the AutoCAD platform to how they can help us today in Civil 3D.

"Link Reference Documents to any Object in Civil 3D The more information a Civil 3D model contains the more value it provides at all stages of a project lifecycle. Typically Civil 3D data might be thought of as the attribution associated with civil objects or maybe user defined properties or property set data. Fortunately Civil 3D can manage more than just attribution Each entity in a Civil 3D model can reference virtually unlimited files and documentation. In this session well explore a concept called reference documents. For more Autodesk civil infrastructure tips tricks and workflows please"
