Description
The Autodesk Civil 3D user interface adds more capabilities for developing and managing civil design information to the default AutoCAD environment.
The ribbon and command line, which are common AutoCAD features, function the same way in Autodesk Civil 3D as they do in AutoCAD.
You can start using the application workspace and several crucial design tools and tasks after watching these videos.
Design data in Autodesk Civil 3D is arranged as object collections in the Toolspace panel. The hierarchy of design elements, including points, surfaces, and alignments, is shown in Toolspace's Prospector tab. An object style hierarchy, including styles for labels and tables, is shown on the Settings page.
The Panorama window shows data in a grid that is horizontally aligned, which makes it simpler to view several columns at once. A unique tab, called a "vista," is used by each type of data displayed in Panorama and is tailored specifically to that data type.
Visual Styles, Named Views, and the Object Viewer are just a few of the many methods to examine Autodesk Civil 3D objects.
The tutorials drawings folder contains all of the illustrations used in these lessons. To avoid overwriting the original drawings when saving your work from these lessons, save the drawings to the My Tutorial Data folder.

For nearly 20 years, Charles has worked in the civil engineering industry. As a Civil Engineering Technician, Charles has been responsible for the production and oversight of construction plan sets, maintaining cad standards and providing cad training and technical support for civil engineering firms in Detroit, Michigan. He was an early adopter of Civil 3D when Autodesk migrated from Land Desktop.
As a Technical Consultant, Charles has taught high school students, college students and EIT’s how to efficiently use civil engineering design software for 10 years. His goal is for students to learn comfortably at their own pace.
