Autodesk Civil 3D is an advanced software solution for civil engineering design, designed to support engineers, designers, and technicians working in infrastructure, urban planning, and environmental sectors. Based on the AutoCAD environment, Civil 3D integrates BIM (Building Information Modeling) functionality for planning, designing, and documenting complex infrastructure projects such as roads, sewer networks, aqueducts, subdivisions, bridges, and railways.
Its strength lies in the ability to automate workflows, maintain data consistency, and reduce errors, improving design efficiency and collaboration between multidisciplinary teams.
Who it's suitable for
Civil 3D is ideal for:
•Civil engineers and infrastructure designers
•Engineering and urban planning consulting firms
•Surveying technicians and geometrists
•Public bodies and municipalities dealing with the management of road networks and territorial systems
•Multidisciplinary BIM teams integrating infrastructure into comprehensive digital models
Main Features
Land modeling and topographic surfaces
Civil 3D allows you to create three-dimensional surfaces from topographic surveys, GPS data, LAS/point cloud files, contour lines, and GIS data.
✔️ Updatable dynamic surfaces
✔️ Volume and slope analysis
✔️ Automatic excavation and backfill calculation
Advanced road design
Parametric tools for the design of roads, highways, and roundabouts, with detailed control of horizontal alignments, vertical alignments, and cross sections.
✅ 3D road corridor modeling
✅ Automatic generation of longitudinal profiles
✅ Material volume calculation and typical sections
Drainage networks, sewers and aqueducts
Integrated design of gravity or pressure pipe networks, with tools to model manholes, pipes, excavations, and channels.
✔️ Hydraulic and hydrological analysis
✔️ Flow and slope calculation
✔️ Integration with Storm and Sanitary Analysis
Subdivision and parceling
Tools for creating and managing lots, boundaries, property lines, with automatic calculations of surfaces, perimeters, and cadastral reports.
✔️ Dynamic label assignment
✔️ Custom criteria for land subdivision
Railways, canals, and linear infrastructure
Design of railway tracks, drainage canals, embankments, and conduits, with precise management of sections and longitudinal geometry.
Automatic documentation and technical tables
Automatic generation of profiles, sections, labels, floor plans, and metric calculations.
✅ Dynamic tables linked to the model
✅ Tables that update automatically with every modification
✅ Export of floor plans and profiles in formats compatible with other software
Collaboration and integrated BIM workflows
Civil 3D works in synergy with other Autodesk software (Revit, InfraWorks, Navisworks), supporting interoperable formats such as IFC, LandXML, DWG, DGN and data sharing via Autodesk Docs.
