Online course "Autodesk Civil 3D: Master Plan Design"

Students must have a basic secondary or higher education in a specialized field; basic knowledge of computer operation; and intermediate computer proficiency. This course is designed for students with an intermediate level of CAD proficiency and previous experience in 2D and/or 3D design using AutoCAD systems.

COURSE PROGRAM

1. Introduction

1.1 Purpose and main features of the software;

Getting to know the user environment.

1.2 Preparation of a digital elevation model for design:

• Opening a file with a flat geobase;
• Definition of relief-forming elements;
• Construction of a digital elevation model (surface) based on elevation marks and structural lines;
• Creating a style for displaying a surface in contours and triangles;
• Surface editing;

Transferring the surface to network design work via LandXML and Quick Link:

• Generating a LandXML file;
• Create a quick link;
• Adding Civil 3D objects to a quick link;
• Generating a DWG file for designing a vertical layout on a pre-configured DWT template from a geobase (external link) and a surface (Quick Link).

2. Design of vertical planning using the structural lines method

• Analysis of the terrain planning scheme and identification of vertical planning “reference points”: an existing building with a height mark or an exit from an existing road;
• Formation of building contours or driveway axes using characteristic lines;
• Assigning the required heights (design or existing) to the tops of characteristic lines;
• Construction of the design surface based on the required number of characteristic lines. Drawing of design contours and their labeling;
• Automatic signing of characteristic line vertices: slope indicators, reference points along the axes of driveways;
• Automatic rebuilding of the design surface.

3. Editing the design surface

• Editing the design surface by changing the elevations of the Feature Line vertices using the Quick Edit Elevations or Set Slope/Ramp Between Points tool.

4. Creation of the design surface of the adjacent territory

• Construction of adjacent territory: lawns, car parks, etc.
• Building pedestrian paths using the Structure Line Surface Overlay tool;
• Application of Marks with design marks;
• Constructing slopes using the "Profiling Object" tool. Create custom slopes with the required slope depth.

5. Preparation of working documentation in accordance with GOST

• Correction of the design relief (surface) using surface editing methods, the reference contour method with justification of the correction methodology;
• Combining the design surface with slopes for correct calculation of earth mass volumes;
• Inserting a design surface into a drawing at a given scale;
• Formation of a plan of earth masses using the "Cartogram" module;
• Inserting calculated values ​​into a drawing at a given scale.
