  • Understanding, creating and editing grading objects

Course content

1 section • 7 lectures • 31m total length

  • Understanding Grading1:42

    Learn grading in AutoCAD Civil 3D to shape land and create design surfaces from break lines and linear features, distinguishing grading from corridor design and applying design specifications.

  • Understanding Feature Lines2:25

    Learn to use feature lines and survey figures as three-dimensional objects to create brake lines on the design surface from the existing ground surface, noting side interactions and split points.

  • Creating Feature Lines5:00

    Create feature lines in Civil 3D from corridors, from scratch, and from objects, assigning elevations from existing ground surface and to features such as a building pad.

  • Editing Feature Lines10:30

    Learn to edit feature lines in Civil 3D with elevation commands, curve and join operations, and surface-based elevations to shape the building pad and ensure drainage.

  • Understanding Grading Objects3:02

    Learn to create and manage grading objects in Civil 3D by applying grading criteria and groups, analyzing baselines and feature lines, and coordinating sites to control elevations and intersections.

  • Creating Grading Objects5:09

    Create grading objects in AutoCAD Civil 3D using grading tools to model a pond, set elevations, define slopes, and generate surfaces with grids and berms.

  • Editing Grading Objects3:36

    Edit grading objects by using the grading editor and grading command to adjust baselines, raise or lower elevations, widen berms, and update the surface accordingly.

Requirements

  • Must have Installed AutoCAD Civil 3D 2016 or above on your computer or laptop.
  • A basic understanding of AutoCAD.
  • Background of Civil Engineering, Transportation Engineering, Surveying, City and Regional Planning or any other related discipline.
  • Knowledge of basic terminologies related Auto CAD and Land Development Projects etc.

Description

About the Instructor

I am a professional Engineer with degree in Transportation Engineering. Working in a multinational Consultancy Firm as a Senior Highway Design Engineer. I have been a part of many Mega projects of National and International Importance.

As a Highway Design Engineer, AutoCAD Civil 3D is my primary design tool. I have excellently developed my skills on AutoCAD Civil 3D over a period of many years, working on several Highway Design projects.

Key Features of This Course

  • Taught by a Professional Engineer having extensive hands-on experience of AutoCAD Civil 3D.

  • All lesson files included for download.

  • Course is based on a real life example Residential Land Development Project.

Project-oriented Course

The course lessons are project-oriented and all of the tools and commands are taught with their real-world applications. The topics are presented as though you have never touched a CAD program before. Whatever you learn and practice in this course will be relevant to the real life practices.

Which version of AutoCAD Civil 3D is used?

I have used AutoCAD Civil 3D 2018 for recording this course but it is equally good for AutoCAD Civil 3D 2015 and later versions. But it is recommended that you have at least installed AutoCAD Civil 3D 2016 on your computer as the practice files are compatible with AutoCAD Civil 3D 2016 and higher versions.

What Topics are Covered in This Course?

This course demonstrates how to design a proposed ground model for a residential land development project while focusing on the feature-line and grading functions of AutoCAD Civil 3D. This Section covers creating and editing feature lines and grading objects.

This course is organized to provide you with the knowledge needed to master the grading essentials in AutoCAD Civil 3D. This course is divided into seven (07) lectures as described below:

  • Understanding Grading

  • Understanding Feature Lines

  • Creating Feature Lines

  • Editing Feature Lines

  • Understanding Grading Objects

  • Creating Grading Objects

  • Editing Grading Objects
