How to Set Up Civil 3D for AEC Projects
This course teaches users how to set up and efficiently manage a project in Civil 3D. You can enhance your drawing performance, ensure a dynamic, single-source design, and maximize team collaboration by using external references and data shortcuts in your Civil 3D project. Templates and styles can be used to standardize object display, layers, and drawing settings across a project. Once established, templates and styles can be imported or referenced across drawings. Civil 3D object catalogs can also be shared with other team members to ensure the same assets are available project-wide.

Existing Conditions Modeling for Civil Projects
A full understanding of the existing conditions can help you design a better site and access to it. In this module, learn how to take advantage of point clouds for modeling the existing conditions. Also learn how to take advantage of the work done by other people like the GIS department, architect, and utility companies/departments.

Coordination and Collaboration for Civil Engineers
When architects, structural engineers, MEP engineers, and civil engineers all collaborate on a project, they must share information about the design, so that all teams are working with the same assumptions. In this module, you learn better ways to collaborate to be more efficient with BIM.
-
Conceptual Design for Civil Projects
Get the broad outlines of function and form of the design faster by using more tools found in the AEC Collection. In this module, you learn how various tools can help you articulate your design ideas faster while saving you time later by reducing rework.
-
Roads and Highways Conceptual Design
Learn the workflow necessary for corridor modeling using the out of the box subassemblies that ship with Civil 3D along with more advanced and customized features of Subassembly Composer.
-
Analysis for Civil Projects
Understanding how your design affects the natural and physical environment can help you improve the design earlier when the cost of changes is lower. From understanding how hard surfaces on the site will cause more runoff to understand how window placement will affect energy use, this module introduces you to the various type of analysis you can do to make your design better.

Communicate the Design Intent on Civil Projects
Helping key stakeholders and the general public clearly understand the project scope can reduce project costs and help you win better work. Storytelling is an essential part of the visualization process, it excites the audience. Develop a process that starts by identifying audiences, the outcome they want to achieve for their visualization and ensure the outcomes are met. In this module, you explore several different options for communicating the design intent to stakeholders. Practice rendering images and creating videos of walkthroughs to better communicate the design. In addition, you learn how to cut plan and profile sheets and better utilize Sheet Set Manager for communicating to contractors how the project should be built.
Introduction to Bridge Design
Design firms now have a way to work more collaboratively on bridge designs to meet the urgent need for bridge design and maintenance. Bringing together five of our design tools — Autodesk® InfraWorks®, Autodesk® Civil 3D®, Autodesk® Revit®, Autodesk® Structural Bridge Design and Autodesk® Inventor® — the bridge design workflow connects the road design, bridge design, fabrication and documentations team into one project model.
