Autodesk Civil 3D is an advanced software solution for civil design, designed to support engineers, designers and technicians operating in the fields of infrastructure, urban planning and the environment. Based on the AutoCAD environment, Civil 3D integrates BIM (Building Information Modeling) functionality for the planning, design and documentation of complex infrastructure projects such as roads, sewer networks, aqueducts, subdivisions, bridges and railways.
Its strength lies in its ability to automate workflows, maintain data consistency and reduce errors, improving design efficiency and collaboration among multidisciplinary teams.
🎯 Who it's suitable for
Civil 3D is ideal for:
•Civil engineers and infrastructure designers
•Engineering and urban planning consulting firms
•Survey technicians and surveyors
•Public bodies and municipalities dealing with the management of road networks and territorial systems
•Multidisciplinary BIM teams integrating infrastructures into overall digital models
