Book Description
Autodesk Civil 3D 2025 Unleashed is a comprehensive guide that equips civil engineers and designers with advanced skills to unlock new levels of efficiency in their projects and careers. Divided into four parts, this book addresses different aspects of Civil 3D capabilities and extensions. Starting with elevating Civil 3D designs using Building Information Modeling (BIM) principles, you’ll develop a strong foundation in BIM and its integration into civil engineering projects. By focusing on design customization with Civil 3D extensions, this book will empower you to harness reality capture technologies, optimize grading designs, and explore content catalog customization. You'll delve into information management and automation with Civil 3D, covering property sets, Project Explorer, and workflow automation using tools like Dynamo for Civil 3D (D4C3D) and scripting. The book will also demonstrate how to prepare BIM designs within Civil 3D for a multitude of downstream uses. Finally, you’ll discover how to extend infrastructure designs beyond Civil 3D and integrate them into the BIM process with Navisworks and InfraWorks for better project collaboration and visualization. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to prepare and use BIM designs within Civil 3D and several other products for easier project creation and management.
