Book Description
With larger projects, tighter deadlines, and greater demands for precision, engineers and designers need tools that do more and work smarter. Autodesk Civil 3D 2026 rises to the challenge, delivering powerful new capabilities for high-precision design modeling and streamlined collaboration. In this second edition, Stephen Walz and Tony Sabat, leaders in digital design and innovation in civil infrastructure, help you tap into Civil 3D's latest features, from pressure layout improvements and dynamic corridor targeting to performance enhancements for surface modeling and grading. You'll learn how to integrate Civil 3D's new toolsets into real-world workflows, develop standards, and collaborate effectively within distributed teams. The book covers surface development, intelligent utility design, and smart document creation, and explores practical applications of AI tools and modeling techniques. Whether you work independently or are part of a large design team, this guide gives you the skills to configure, manage, and deliver projects Civil 3D 2026 and improve your entire project pipeline.What you will learn
- Create and manage surfaces, alignments, and profiles
- Import and organize survey data for accurate base maps
- Design roadways, parcels, and utility networks
- Connect design components with AI tools for faster workflows
- Eliminate redundancy using intelligent, dynamic Civil 3D objects
- Optimize 3D modeling to improve design decisions and outcomes
